Do yourself a favor and stop watching television news.

36. I quit watching most mainstream news a while ago.

I stopped watching CNN and much of MSNBC's morning shows because I got tired of all the false equivalence crap and them trying to make elections tight when the GOPher candidates are deeply flawed. Now I mainly watch CurrentTV and MSNBC's prime time shows, and sometimes Stephen Colbert.

On a different subject, another poster on this thread had mentioned giving up TV completely. That does sound interesting because there are a handful of commercials that I absolutely abhor (including those All State and State Farm commercials), and sometimes I feel as if I'm being told by TV how to think and what to buy. But I don't think I can see myself doing that because it can get pretty boring eventually, and not all TV shows put all their episodes online.
