I've heard watching too much of the news turns your hair grey

JK ....

I used to think grey hair made you look old, now I know it makes you look experienced.

It is increasingly hard to find actual news imo. I sometimes look around a bit to try to see different slants on it.

Something I did see I liked:

King’s Birthday Honours 2025: The full list

The New Zealanders honoured this King's Birthday.

www.nzherald.co.nz

Notwithstanding the potential flaws in the honours system - good on them!

Not watching the news. There might have been a time when watching the news meant that you were being kept informed. This is not that time. I find that the more folks watch FOX, CNN, MSNBC, and wherever else that they are getting their news, the more that they seemed unhinged. That's regardless of political affiliation. It has become a sickness. Time to turn it off.

Good for you mate. You won't regret it. I rarely bother with the main-stream media (MSM) these days and instead follow a range of other alternative news and information podcasts which more than keeps me informed.......its actually deeply troubling the rubbish our MSM dish up these days, full of opinion based, biased dribble, often delivered from a left-leaning perspective.

I find even the "news" whose political viewpoint I agree with to be irritating. It is almost like a CIA psych-op program to radicalize people and you have actually seen that happen in the US over the last ten years. FOX is the most effective. Currently, they are fixated now on Harvard getting its funding cut and illegal alien crimes. No matter what else is going on. MSNBC is less effective on the left but has the same playbook. Give it a rest for 24 hours and you feel like a new person.

I can't comment on what's occurring in the US, however down here the left hold centre-court and more than dominate MSM. They manage a leftist slant on virtually everything and its vomit worthy. Yet they can't work out why MSM ratings have plummeted and viewer numbers have dived over the past few years......
