In reality...

It’s the news that doesn’t impact your life at all, is the news you care about.

For example, the other day two big stories that blew up was that Kate Middleton was pregnant and the pope had made a twitter. It doesn’t affect you at all. Unless you live in England, which you probably don’t. But if you did, it still wouldn’t affect you for another twenty years or so. Even then it still wouldn’t change much. In the end, the only thing it will change is who you’re following on twitter. Why? Because you’re waiting for that day of a picture of the baby so you can retweet it. The pope’s finally making a twitter, maybe he’ll send some words of wisdom, in Latin. The Fiscal Cliff. Maybe you’ve seen it as a trending search on Bing a few times but were too lazy to click on it. That impacts you a lot. How? It’s a long story.

It’s also the dumb stories that you see on the news every morning that you won’t remember by 12:30. You like to watch it, everyone does because it’s interesting and easy to understand. You also like that sort of news because it’s something you can tell someone in class or tell a coworker to start a conversation. No one wants to talk about politics, they want to talk about the guy who won the lottery and how he doesn’t deserve it. I would rather talk about that than politics, anyone would because you also can’t take sides on dumb stories. It’s how much that will last as something you cared about until another story comes up. This blog for example, doesn’t impact your life at all, unless if it’s that you realized you spend too much time on Reddit, claiming you keep up with the news.
