I understand that, I tend to avoid them as much as possible also, but if it's the only place where certain facts are present, I'll read them.
But I ignore the emotive language or opinion dressed as reporting.
Which is something I noted while staying in LA recently - all the news shows I had access to on the hotel TV were "here's something that happened", which typically ran for 30 - 60 seconds, followed by 15 minutes of people offering opinions on it. And the channels that wanted to present as unbiased would give a Democrat aligned commentator and a Republic aligned commentator equal "this is how you should interpret this" time.
But yeah, blew my mind that so much of the "news" was talking heads telling you what to think about the news.
If you are not simultaneously against bezos-funded propaganda or zuck-funded propaganda (he still funds fwd.us whose main goal is to lower tech salaries by increasing immigration), you are a hypocrite.
