Especially in politics, when everything is blown up to be the end of the world then the actual stuff that might be worth taking note of is buried in the noise.

Especially in politics, when everything is blown up to be the end of the world then the actual stuff that might be worth taking note of is buried in the noise. I came to the conclusion the only time it's probably worth checking up on news or historic news is before an election, that has some value. Otherwise ignore it. Anything truly important will reach you anyway.
