There's too much negative stuff on the news so I'm going to make it a point this weekend to stay away from the television, radio and Internet so I can get away from all of the garbage. Too much news starts to really get depressing.
 
right


Good decision. This should also be done by businessmen. Stop reading the news that caters mostly to negative events. This way, you can focus your mind to innovative ideas minus the threat of failing... :P
 
That is a good idea. I am also thinking of a similar thing. The news recently have been too much bad to hear and it is full of sad stuffs and I am sure not many people would like watching news nowadays.
 
No, not turning off. Just change to the news of another country.


If you are watching CNN, take BBC for a while.


I have found out that different countries see things in different ways. So, if you want to know what other are thinking, take a look at their television.
 
Well, if there are bad news I want to be informed because I want to be prepared if something bad is coming. I wouldn't watch the TV if only "happy" news were present.
 
I like the idea of watching the news from another country just to get a different perspective. In my area, news from the BBC is available. I'll have to give it a try.

Nice positive thinking! Do you honestly think you would hear about bad news in time? The news seems to sugar coat alot of big things, unless it is like a hurricane or something
 
Well the media is really in the business to get ratings. To get ratings, they know people want to hear tragic/bad/saddening stuff. You can't blame them for doing what is best for the business.


Who wants to hear about kitties finding new homes instead of a new war with North Korea?
 
We'll not watching CNN for a while is a good breather. All you see are bad news. That's a nice idea though. Watching another news from another country can give you new perspective.
