- trompetenaccoun 5y agoThere are also studies that say reading the news makes people unhappy. It's not hard to imagine why that is. I think most of us agree that social media as it is, is broken. But internet forums and social media can also be a massively powerful tool for the people to connect and share information from a grassroots level. Just like journalism has become compromised, so has social media. The solution isn't to abolish both, instead we need to find ways to strengthen their integrity and make them independent of partisan corporate or political interests. https://time.com/5125894/is-reading-news-bad-for-you/ https://time.com/5125894/is-reading-news-bad-for-you/
