Move to an authoritarian country, like China. Seriously.
If you live in a democracy, news is pretty important for informing you for performing your civic responsibilities and exerting your influence on the political system. If your influence is literally zero, then there's no point. In places like that, there's even a self-preservation incentive for disengagement, because engagement can be dangerous if it conflicts with the authorities.
