The constant stream being masqueraded as "news" is like the last chance calorie counter as you checkout at the grocery store. You can grab some chocolate, some gum, some mints, some more chocolate, some chips, a slimjim, a powerbar, some more candy and gum, one of those ridiculous candy toys like a ring pop or pacifier, breath freshener inviso-strips, a bag of peanuts, etc, etc. It's all there, all the time, but you don't have to take it in. The occasional treat is ok, but there is much more nutritious, more substantial fare elsewhere.

Above all, all things in moderation. Even good food. Even real news.
