I yearn for the time when traditional newspapers used to be the standard mode of news consumption. No sensational bait, no unlimited length, no "personalization" of content.. just a small daily digest of all that's happening in the important corners and domains of the world, enough to keep you from being ignorant of the times. Not only were written articles a superior form of communication with much lower ambiguity, but they also offered more flexibility and freedom for the reader to digest and discuss happenings at their own pace. Now, the newspapers themselves have "adapted" to internet consumption by dumbing down and commercializing their own content to be at par with internet slop. Live news, on the internet as well as on TV, are a curse on consumers.
