I went for a jog at my condo's gym the other day and the news was on. During my 30m session I learned about 3 violent crimes around the city. 2 car collisions.

I went for a jog at my condo's gym the other day and the news was on. During my 30m session I learned about 3 violent crimes around the city. 2 car collisions. And a bunch of political turmoil etc. I thought to myself: Why do I need to know person-x was one in 3 million to get killed? Why is this compelling? Is there a risk to me? Was such an overtly negative feeling to watch that. Turned it off half way through the run.
