After attempting to black out all news media for 48 hours I realized that it was definitely much harder then I thought it would be. I realized that news is everywhere and trying to avoid it is more difficult then trying to follow it.
I feel that news is a necessary intrusion of our solitude. It makes us aware of different events going on around us and informs us of important facts. Many may argue that news can create more solitude by making us think for ourselves. I disagree because I relate solitude to a positive and constructive state where you can enjoy or reflect on something peacefully. Many news creates fear and worry, and there is nothing peaceful about that.
