STORY & REFLECTION
A boundary for today's news
Guidance-based illustration · A boundary for today's news
Illustrative scene: Someone opens the news at every phone alert even when there is no new information that helps a decision.
They silence some alerts, choose one news window, and turn to another activity when they notice tension rising.
The CDC recommends breaks from news and social media when constant exposure is distressing. People can choose when and where to get useful updates. A break can be temporary: return to a reliable source when new information is needed for a real decision.
Being informed can have a stopping point.
