I haven't watched the news in years. I find it pretty useless to me. I have also gone years without tv on and off. I currently enjoy watching tv and movies whenever the mood strikes me, but it is a conscious decision and not to avoid boredom. It is a pretty cool experiment to see how much time one actually has in a day with out tv/internet and also how much of your thought patterns are being directed by it. You figure tv, commercials, news etc... is a one way communication. It is only coming at you and never open to discussion. I remember an old friend once told me, the smartest people who watch television- talk back at their tv sets. I didn't get it at first, but now it makes sense.
