Ever since I stopped following major news outlets and reading the news everyday, I feel so much better.

I’ve read the introduction and it was fun. The author, Rolf Dobelli, shares a story of how he was at a dinner party full of journalists, and told all of them that ‘the news is worthless and that their jobs are meaningless.’ It was a tough crowd. But funny.

Perhaps by the end of this book, the author will have convinced me to stop reading the news completely. I’m excited to find out!
