How much should I care about news? (www.theguardian.com)

I read this article recently and I was just thinking about my news consumption and how much I want to be affected by it.

I feel like it is important because shit is going on in the world however I usually don't change my habits much over it.

I also think that there should be a middle ground somewhere but I can't think of it so if anyone of you have ideas please share them.

Honestly, I think half the US would be more informed if they never watched the news again.

I mean what do you do as an alternative to staying informed if not reading the news.

I agree with doing hobbies to increase your skills but doing that doesn't keep you up to date does it?
