Not a well founded article, but worth consideration to me. The times I've been away from the news for a week or more, I survived. Ignorant and happy. In addition, there have been numerous times I've read the morning news and been frustrated with political happenings that affect my career, but were well out of my immediate control. Probably better to hear these stories later in the day or not at all. I'd still be the same person I am now, possibly a bit less frustrated. No news, outside of the sports section, will be my plan for the next two weeks, or more.

Hubski doesn't count though. The content here is too thought-provoking and engaging.
