Stop Reading The News by Rolf Dobelli

A Manifesto for a Happier, Calmer and Wiser Life

Argues that daily news consumption distorts thinking, hijacks attention, and delivers little practical value. It explains how sensationalism and cognitive biases make headlines addictive while fragmenting focus and increasing anxiety, then offers a plan to quit: remove feeds, limit updates, and favor books, long-form analysis, and primary sources. The result is clearer judgment, greater productivity, and a calmer, deeper understanding of the world.
