RE: Afternoon Vlog - Trying to stay positive during these depressing times..
Thanks for your perspective. Your right the news is like a long running TV show and they will sell whatever keeps their ratings high. If people stop watching news then they don't get advertising dollars.
I don't watch much TV but I don't want to be an ostrich and put my head in the sand.
This one about advertising dollars just reminds me so much of a 'doctor's dilemma'. Honesty doesn't pay out. Do doctors actually want to help me get healthy or secure their jobs and salaries? Sorry, but these two are in direct conflict.
And absolutely - don't be an ostrich! We have to take 'the red pill' and check for ourselves 'how deep does the rabbit hole go'. But no TV is going to give us the 'red pill'.
"You are more alone than you imagine. This should not be a source of fear but of freedom. When you prove to yourself that you can get things on your own, then you experience a sense of liberation." - Robert Greene.
