I haven't had a tv for over 3 years now. (Stolen, never replaced) I realized shortly after that, that 99.9% of the things you see on tv/news has absolutely no impact on your life. Who cares who is fucking who in Hollywood, or that this group is going after that group, and I had the best election cycle of my life this last time around. Why? Because I didn't have to sit thru a slew of bullshit politcal ads from any side.
Hell, I didnt even get internet back at my house until Google Fiber was laid.
Drama is what you make or seek out. Don't do it and you don't get it.

I have had a tV for the past 3 years
-I don't watch nor care about Hollywood
-I dont watch "news"(as they give drama,(their opinions)) and not just facts
(the easiest way to see this is use the "news" to figure out the weather for tomorrow vs internet, which is faster and less "DRAMA")
-I also own a DVR, so I don't want tv ads and can record shows when I'm the TV is off
but I get to watch funny shows that make me laugh, or educational shows that teach me a thing or 2...
google fiber?
I also use clear internet(which is satelittle) so my little box. the size of 2 decks of cards, gives me a fast connection(that streams Netflix) and costs $30/month and has no wires(ok, 1 wire to charge it)
I agree, you can pick and choose drama. but I don't cut off my nose, despite my face
