1. I do/do not follow the news because....
2. Explain the reason why you hold this position in detail. This could include supporting rational, providing an anecdote (a super short story), or another form of evidence to support your thinking.
3. Wrap-up by reflection on if your position on the topic is fair in your eyes.

The news often allows us to hear an account of important events while tracking their development. We may never get to meet the people interviewed or visit the location of the interview, but we can get a snapshot of that area from following the news. Although the news is not perfect, it is a way for us to hear stories and updates from communities outside of our own. ]]> 2021-03-09 07:34:00 UTC https://padlet.com/mrjackson20/n82cxjznd13zidn3/wish/1286212540 https://padlet.com/mrjackson20/n82cxjznd13zidn3/wish/1288235876 I do not follow the news because I don't find them interesting that much.
When I use to watch the news they would barely show any important things and stuff going around the world.Sometimes the news can get distracted and talk about what benefits them and sometimes they might not always say the correct things which can confuse people sometimes.]]> 2021-03-09 15:49:46 UTC https://padlet.com/mrjackson20/n82cxjznd13zidn3/wish/1288235876 https://padlet.com/mrjackson20/n82cxjznd13zidn3/wish/1289483692 I do not follow the news mainly because they do not talk about what is really happening and most of the time the news is not always right.I believe the news only tells what they want to tell and some of their facts do not add up. I feel like the news is like these tea pages on youtube they just tell all the business and add their own input into it and call that a ¨story¨. To me the news is useless and doesnt really come in handy when you want to find something.]]> 2021-03-09 19:16:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mrjackson20/n82cxjznd13zidn3/wish/1289483692 https://padlet.com/mrjackson20/n82cxjznd13zidn3/wish/1290064036 I follow the news because it lets you know whats going on here in the States and all around the world, rather if its a news channel or some  online source its news. But You should always lookout for fake news. look at multiple sources to make sure its true, sometimes in spite of that it could be fake. I think the news can be helpful, its here just to let us know whats going on in our world.]]> 2021-03-09 21:38:45 UTC https://padlet.com/mrjackson20/n82cxjznd13zidn3/wish/1290064036 https://padlet.com/mrjackson20/n82cxjznd13zidn3/wish/1291250258 I don't follow the news because I don't find it interesting or enjoyable. My father and grandma follow the news closely and growing up they would get upset and yell at the tv while watching the news. Now that I'm at an age where I can choose what I watch I would rather choose positive things that make me happy than stressful things like the news.]]> 2021-03-10 05:22:17 UTC https://padlet.com/mrjackson20/n82cxjznd13zidn3/wish/1291250258 https://padlet.com/mrjackson20/n82cxjznd13zidn3/wish/1304056715 I do follow the news because I like to see what is going on in the world. The news is a way to see what is going on in the world. I mostly watch local because I like to know what is happening in the state. I make sure to stay up to date so that way I know what to look out for.]]> 2021-03-12 19:34:02 UTC https://padlet.com/mrjackson20/n82cxjznd13zidn3/wish/1304056715 https://padlet.com/mrjackson20/n82cxjznd13zidn3/wish/1304712946 I do not follow the news because I find the news very uninteresting, when I was younger my mom would make me watch the news and it was super boring to the point where I would turn off the T.V. Sometimes the news may also say some things that don't seem to make sense.]]> 2021-03-13 01:52:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mrjackson20/n82cxjznd13zidn3/wish/1304712946
