Alex Treisman, a tech journalist, has found that social media is the worst place for him to get news, particularly in his personal life where he gets overwhelmed with information. He decided to change his routine by turning off news alerts, unfollowing social media accounts, and disabling Google News and Apple News. Instead, he read the Sunday newspaper, the Los Angeles Times, a weekly newspaper subscription. This change in reading has transformed his relationship to the news, home, and mental health. Treisman believes that reading the paper gives him more confidence in what he is consuming and that it's a more balanced way to stay informed. He also trusts the news he is reading, as journalists are trained on a rigorous code of ethics and editing processes.
