    Vox is a reputable and very thorough news source, though, usually worth the read.

    This two-pager, for example, highlights false Twitter journalists popping in Baltimore to politically spin the recent bridge collapse.

      That’s not my point. What I’m saying is that I knowingly limit my news diet to what is the most important/interesting and this is neither so I’m not bothering my mind with it. I don’t need to know and not knowing has zero effect on my life.
