This is not to suggest that all reporters and news organizations are terrible, biased people. Many of them have dedicated their life's work to informing the public. However, in order for us to be both well‐informed and have a healthy relationship with the news, we have a responsibility to ourselves to question both the facts and the impact of those facts on ourselves and those around us. Griffin uses the analogy of a researcher choosing sources to conduct her research. The researcher doesn't look at the political affiliation of the source, but rather, the reputation, integrity, and quality of the source. It is no different in choosing a news source. Finding sources that have a proven track record for covering news and events in a transparent way will help ensure that we are well‐informed regarding current events. We can limit our sources to only a small number and certainly monitor our consumption to avoid being overwhelmed with hyperbole and rhetoric. The rollercoaster that is the 24‐hour news cycle is not a ride that we have to endure. We can pick good sources, limit push notifications, and be sensitive to the time we devote as well as to the anxiety we are feeling while still being well‐informed.
