Watching negative news

For a lot of reason some people avoid reading news. It is convinced by the society that reading newspapers or watching news for hours is good for us to get updated. In a sense that is true. News is something that should be watched or read. But what if the news itself diverges from its . Instead of delivering the news, these media’s are keenly focused on delivering addictive contents. A culture of attracting views got the foremost prioritization. As with the internet, the competition for getting views or subscription soared. This led the media companies to focus on customer acquisition than delivering news. They broadcast contents that are addictive and short term pleasurable.
Our minds are readily acceptable to negative news than positive news. A bribe investigation is lot pleasurable a development project. We all know that negativity is bad for the mind.

We are not allowed to wander with our will and certainly not with any other rules. Predefined are the prime ones. When we look at those cultural scribings of activism, we could see that everything is limiting and designed to refrain is from our true potential. The hardest thing is not being unaware of this trap, it is being in the trap even after knowing you are in a trap. This makes us to think differently. Because we found something, probably, no one around found. It would be game changer for everyone. It could transform the society and culture, paving a more promising future for the generations to come. But what happen when we introduce this theory to those blind people is quite depressing. They mock and joke you, laugh a...
