NEWS 2 USE

How do you absorb the news and analysis of events and conditions we are fed on a 24-hour basis? Do you factor in potential biases of the authors of news reports? Is there an attempt on your part to make an independent assessment of the impact each reported event will have in your life? Is your response, if any, "reactive" or "proactive"?
We are not cheerleaders. Instead, we attempt to identify and present news reports and commentaries addressing major issues. On occasion, the questions raised in these offerings may be their only contribution of significance. Our goal is, and shall remain, motivating and assisting our readers in developing and implementing successful strategies for C[ing]YA.
