I think looking at the news is a bad idea. None of it is relevant to your day-to-day actions, and none of it ever gets brought up again after two weeks or so have passed, and yet if you pay attention to it, it takes space in your memory for a long time, just like everything else. We have limited space in our memory, and it is wasted on ephemeral news.
There are a couple exceptions I can think of. The news can be useful for making decisions to buy or sell things, and it can be useful to make decisions to leave your country, if it might be about to become worse.
