Sometimes It's Nice to be Uninformed

Not that I encourage anyone to be ignorant, but this past week or two definitely have been a time that my general lack of interest in the news has been kind of nice. What I mean is that a lot of news that is truly unimportant, purely sensationalized, and to an extent obnoxious was reported, instead of that which actually matters to the nation and the world. Of course when the systems have been tuned for 24 hour news, and the people made to be tuned for that as well, you have to do something to fill the day.
That is one nice aspect of the Internet though. It can provide you with news whenever you want, and the news you consumer can be the news you want, instead of the news someone more interested in ratings than information selected.
