I don’t watch it so much these days

I used to be a news junkie.

I read the newspaper every morning with my coffee.

I watched the six o’clock news every evening and the eleven o’clock news every night.

I don’t do that these days.

I think I stopped watching most of the news when #45 got elected.

I find his voice beyond fingernails on the blackboard annoying.

I read my news when I can tolerate it.

Most days I can’t, it makes my stomach churn, and raises my blood pressure to dangerous levels.

Avoiding news shows keeps me healthier, keeps the TV from being smashed, and prevents me from needing anger management.
