A few years ago I quit watching news on TV or listening to it on the radio. I receive all my news from the internet and I read what I choose, not what someone else seems to think I need to know or their opinion of it. I watched all the COVID-19 daily updates via YouTube and US State Department, I found out one day when I was watching a network feed and they had a tight camera on the podium and would not show the screens behind the podium which contained much information I wanted to see, I then found the State Dept. stream and the difference was amazing, the things the network wouldn’t show me tended to distort what was being said, I did not appreciate their censorship. No matter what your political persuasion there are plenty of website with accurate information to keep you up with the news of the day and you can read whatever whenever you like and not affect your mood, if it disturbs you don’t read it, simple as that, you are in control.

Thanks for your wonderful reply...and yes, I am in control of what I listen to...the problem is , this radio channel is the primary all news channel in my area that I used to love to leave on for background....their weather and traffic updates were helpful and comforting...now, well - I seem to be going into a theme song here.....
