Here is a very helpful article that explains the harm that comes from consuming news:
https://unixsheikh.com/includes/files/avoid-the-news.pdf
The following are some of the document section headings (that might spark enough interest in you to read the doc):
No 1 – News misleads us systematically
No 2 – News is irrelevant
No 3 – News limits understanding
No 4 – News is toxic to your body
No 5 – News massively increases cognitive errors
No 6 – News inhibits thinking
et seq.
Movies & TV-Series seem to have the same toxicity as news. It seems to me that all media seem to instill a perpetual static of panic in the viewer, which leads to addiction.
