Is news bad for you?

Here's a funny one, in light of the cold winter we are having (although temperatures did get milder on the weekend):



I was in a dinner conversation months ago and someone said news is bad for us. At the time I didn't understand the argument so I decided to google some information on this. I found this story. It has 9 reasons news is bad for you (misleads, wastes time, inhibits thinking) and 9 reasons why it's good (informs us, teaches critical thinking, educational). I think news is good for us, how about you?

Creative Tuesdays - News

It's time for Creative Tuesdays, thanks to MMm for hosting! The theme this week is 'News'. I was inspired by a photo on Twitter that my sister found, it was taken during the Sandy hurricane when it hit NY, New Jersey. It's watercolour pencils on cardstock (4.5" x 6.5").  After a couple of years sketching these art co-ops, I seem to do these very quickly now.  Practice makes perfect I guess!

Please visit the other talented participants to see what 'news' inspired them!
