Done with the News

What Looking Away Costs, What It Doesn’t, and What to Keep

If something really mattered, somebody would have told me. Kelsey believed that for almost two years after she deleted the news apps from her phone. Then, at a birthday party, she learned that the plant where her brother-in-law worked would close. Everyone knew. This book does not ask whether you should go back. It asks whether the step you took costs you anything, and if it does, what, and how you would know.
