Nothing facetious about it--there's very little reported on the local and national news that has any real impact on our lives. If its important to you to know about what's going on the world in certain areas--political, economic, social--then get that information from specialized sources. I haven't watch the local news or national network news in years. I watch CNBC/Bloomberg for financial and market related news because its important to me professionally and interests me personally. Focus on the information that's important to you--with the advent of cable TV, satellite TV and radio and the Internet there's no reason you have to subject yourself to negativity or a world view not in concert with your own.
