  You don't need to watch the news that much, if something is important enough, you'll usually find out about it

  This is also why it is important that these large social media platforms are treated like public utilities or common carriers. They should not be allowed to block speech or shadow ban users or have cartels of unaccountable moderators (like on Reddit). Democracy isn’t just voting. People need to be able to freely express and discuss news, their political ideas, even if controversial or offensive. And digital public squares cannot be in the hands of a few private employees with mostly the same views.
