> For most people there's something in there worth knowing. Your distribution is way off. If we’re talking national US news like the NYT or WaPo reports on, there is actually worth knowing. The only value it provides is “sounding informed” at a party. It has a huge negative downside too. It’s some watered down biased version of what’s going on in the world that fits narratives of the editors, with barely any relationship to reality. National news is absolutely propaganda-loaded trash that serves a severely negative value for society overall. Local news has a better hit ratio, but it’s still like 5% maybe at best on any given day. |

Local news isn't immune either.
E: Apparently I posted twice when I tried to edit the Youtube link to the main site. Deleted the dupe.
