335-News Detox- Buddhism in daily life

News Detox

Every day we are bombarded with "news".

Politician X demands ....................

Politician Y wants ..................

Politician Z is appalled .......................

I can't listen to it anymore!

So for some time now I have refused to listen to the media garbage that is poured over me.

Imagine it is "peace", there is silence around us, the "concerned" statements no longer reach me.

Therefore, I no longer read news, such or otherwise, I am no longer "reachable".

I don't read (and watch) "news" anymore, WITHOUT ME!

I have "news detox!"

There is no good news. Just because there is bad news doesn't necessarily mean there is good news

- David Benioff - US writer - born 1970

As a child I learned to read from the news of war

- Michael Walzer - US social philosopher and intellectual - born 1935

Headlines mislead us in some ways, because bad news is a headline, but gradual improvements are not

- Bill Gates - US entrepreneur, programmer and patron of the arts - born 1955

I don't even have an email address. I have reached an age where my main purpose is not to receive news.

- Umberto Eco - Italian writer - 1932 to 2016

News is always more, but it is only according to those who (let) choose it. The more news about unimportant things, the more important things remain hidden. Worldwide, millions of equally important things are concealed at the same time for millions every day

- Helmut Seethaler - Austrian writer - born 1953

I am accredited, have a camera and a lot of time. That is a deadly combination

- Oliver Pocher - German entertainer, showmaster and comedian - born 1978
