Neil Oliver’s monologue hit the 🎯 on so many points. A version of this should be the monologue of every news anchor worth their salt, but no, we have talking heads repeating the ‘word of the day’ over and over.

Best piece of advice ever: ignore the lies. Live your life as best you can. Talk to your neighbors. Love your family and friends.

I occasionally peruse articles from news aggregator sites and click on some of them just to see what they say the prevailing Crisis of the Month is. Invariably, the author will oh-so-casually drop in a reference to climate change, or that some situation is inherently racist, at which point, I stop reading.

Nudge, nudge. Someone is putting their AI writers to good use here, they sound so formulaic. It all can be safely added to the 99% of things to ignore.
