My IG feed is largely taken over by congressional members videos, crazy $#!t the president (and his crew) says, and the keystone cops. And boy howdy is there a lot of rage inducing behavior going on.

I feel more informed than if I was only listening to NPR.

That said, I stay away from anything that’s produced—sound track, too many cuts/edits, talking head commentary. I guess in this context, if I’m going to be driven to emotional anxiety, it’s going to be from something that happened or something someone said, and not the internet’s interpretation.

You can’t “produce content” that I will watch _as news_. It has to be in some real way happening (with some deference to Rashomon).
