Reading too much political news is bad for your well-being

An interesting excerpt

A 2012 survey conducted by Fairleigh Dickinson University asked a sample of Americans about their news-consumption habits, and quizzed them about U.S. and international political and economic events. They found that those watching the most partisan television news sources—on both the left and the right—were often less knowledgeable about world events than those who consumed no news at all.

Politics does not exist in the physics sense. We created it. It can therefore be ignored, changed or eliminated (if desired).
