Choosing the Right News Source: Avoiding the Trap of Misinformation
Earlier there were very few means of getting information, but now as technology is developing, it has become much easier and simpler to get information and in such a situation many people take advantage of this thing and provide wrong information to people and sometimes people take many wrong steps due to this wrong information and this is a very serious problem. Earlier there were very few means of getting information, earlier people used to depend only on newspapers and radio, yes, perhaps the young generation of today may not have even heard about radio or may not have even heard about newspapers because now its use has reduced a lot, but it is still seen in many places, nowadays everyone focuses on watching the news on the internet and online and this is also an easy way for people to get information.
Everyone has his own choice, they watch their news channel or should I say different types of programs accordingly. Not everyone likes all types of news and not everyone likes all kinds of news, so all this can change from person to person, people watch different news channels according to their choice, some people like to listen to crime news, some people like business related news, and some people just want to watch news no matter what is going on, they just want to pass time, so basically it all depends on what type of a person you are and what type of things you like, accordingly you select your news channel or any other channel.
To be honest, I stopped watching the news a few years ago. Yes, sometimes when there is main news, I go to some special channels on Youtube and watch them whenever I feel that the news is worth watching because there are many channels on Youtube that provide good information and that too in an unbiased manner because nowadays only propaganda is shown on news channels; instead of showing the real news, they just show nonsense. Earlier, a few years ago, I too used to be very interested in all this news and I used to listen and watch such news with great interest which perhaps did not even have any meaning, but as I came to know about things, I stopped watching all this. And believe me, if you watch news channels carefully then there is more nonsense going on than anything else. There are very few news channels that let you hear some useful news and maybe you get some knowledge from it but believe me, nowadays everything is about money, and people run all kinds of news to increase TRP.
To be honest, if you want to hear the news if you are from India then you should listen to Doordarshan or DD news, you get the news in very simple and easy words and if you don't want to do this then you can listen to the news on radio in Akashvani, there you get news three times a day in the morning, afternoon and evening and the same is good and relevant information. I have a small radio on which I take the country's updates in the morning and evening for a while and the news which I find a little good or interesting I read about them in detail and then watch a video on YouTube because nowadays you get information very fast and many YouTube channels make videos only on the latest news so that their videos also get good views and a this is a good way too.
I would say that no matter where you live, you should not trust anyone blindly, you should check things only after that you should believe and never forward anything fake, first check it because sometimes we forward things without thinking and later we regret why we did it, so never do such things, first of all, do not watch the news, I would say this because you hardly get any information there and if you like to watch then you should look for such channels which share some news and there are many YouTube channels which tell you a lot of things, I follow a YouTube channel named TheLallantop on YouTube and there I get almost all types of news from country-abroad and local and also get a lot of informative information, if you are also from India then you must have heard about this channel if you have not heard then you must follow this channel and I hope that you will learn something informative from here. You will get it.
By the way, this is not the only channel from where you can get to know about knowledge, there are many such channels and you should search for such channels and you should increase your knowledge. If possible, then stop watching useless news channels and use your energy on some other things and keep updating and upgrading yourself.

Just like you I also at first got tired of news due to the lies and increase in fake news, although I don't believe most of the YouTube news too because I use to believe most of them just published to get views and in the end reward from streams, but I'll check it out to see again.
Mostly I just collect and listen to news from different channels and do my own research by adding things together to decipher what's real.
It only in an uncensored platform that one can listen to right news. News from government authorized agencies only tell us what they wish

The national channels are just serving the garbage mostly. The TRP is what they want.
No metter how sensitive news or matter it is.
They are just puppets of big parties.
