Read the newspaper daily

I have set my home page to a major newspaper and I’ve been way more informed than usual. I haven’t kept up a personal journal as I said in the past entry, but I’ve found that discussing different issues with friends really helps you discover what your views on different issues are, whether or not you agree with them.

I find reading the internet paper so much better for me than the “regular” paper because (1) crosswords, fashion, entertainment and fluffy stuff aren’t featured as prominently on the main page of the website, (2) I’m on the internet way more than I have access to a paper copy, (3) it’s FREE!

I am so ill-informed and have no opinions about the world and need to do something to change that! I’m going to set my internet homepage to a daily newspaper site, and read at least 1 article a day. I’ll start a journal or something with my reflections on the daily articles that I read- that way I’m informed AND have thought about how I feel.
