Hmmm….this old hermit on the mountain hasn’t had TV for 30 yrs. What’s a radio?….that’s an emergency device down in the Faraday box. Even the radio in the car went ka-put. We live outside of cell phone range unless we go ‘into town’. No FB. No other social media ….which usually requires cell phone.
On 2 forums. Other Internet places I visit. Gather news/data from NON-standard news sources and occasionally research that data if I feel the need to KNOW and/or VERIFY something. I do love to research ordinary data…non-news topics that catch my interest. I can do that for hours. I gaze at headlines for a quick look at what’s happening globally/locally. Have email alerts set for wildfires in our area OR other local alerts we’d need to know.
I guess there is not a lot of news data that we process. Being in ‘boonies’ and choosing not to be on social media, leaves us wondering what some terms even mean. {shrug} Not stressing about it. Sad to think of masses and masses of folks who immerse themselves in “news” and know little.
