In the late 80’s I was stressing myself to death. I started visiting a Buddhist nun who recommended that I turn off the TV—especially the news—and all newspapers for one whole month!
That month helped save my life. Although I stay informed today, it is through quick email headlines and summaries like those provided by http://www.newsisfree.com, http://www.MSNBC.com and now RSS channels through radio.userland.com and the Radio News Aggregator.
The AP Newswire does not seem to have the intent of ripping out your heart and leaving you feeling unsafe at home, work, in the car, or even under your desk. Can’t say the same thing about Dan Rather-Awful or CNN or… the local news. Can you believe that some people spend the last 30 minutes of each day watching all the murder and mayhem that can be fit into 30 minutes?
And we wonder why we suffer from heart disease or flee to comfort foods (which are conveniently advertised during the same shows)?
