After November 5th, US election night, I decided to stop watching so much news. When we were on our cruise, we only got CNN, FOX NEWS and BBC NEWS. I would put on CNN and they would say "save our democracy, Trump is going to take it away". I would turn to Fox and they would say "Kamala a Fascist". The news in the US couldn't be any wider apart. Who is right? Well, we will see in four years.
I haven’t watched FOX, MSNBC or CNN at all since the election, and I honestly feel so much better. If I want to catch up on the news, I avoid the 24-hour news networks and instead watch the evening news hour on CBC, Global or late night BBC for international news.
I am feeling better and sleeping better.
I haven't given up on social media, but I've stopped following a lot of people. If I feel it's time to quit, I will. I do like the "local" news. Weather, Canadian politics, Traffic reports and local news. I never tweet, I just read them.
