A number of people claim, that

news

has nothing to do with their lives and

time

shouldn't be wasted on these programs. I partly agree with

this

view.

Firstly

, the

news

doesn't have a great impact on human lives. We should not spend a considerable amount of

time

of our life checking the

news

, they have very little influence on us. Most

news

is not directly related to us,

for example

, world politics, national exports and much criminal

news

as well, these things happen so regularly that we will just check them and forget it the day after.

As a result

, it will be a serious loss of

time

, possibly money to watch something

that is

not worth discussing.

Furthermore

news

programs, including television will shape your opinion gradually, as you listen to them consistently,

therefore

, we need to actively avoid

news

sources.

However

, having said that, the

news

is not a complete waste of

time

. There are multiple extra-scientific, educational articles, influential stories or just some literature pieces that we can read or watch,

therefore

improving our knowledge and wisdom.

Additionally

, local

news

may help us keep up to date what is the current status of the place, which can have an impact on us.

For instance

, we know about rising theft rates around our town through the

news

and we can prepare for it. In conclusion, while

news

has little to no connection to us and may affect us negatively, it may

also

help us under specific circumstances.
