It's really simple to not watch news. I've removed my TV from the living room. My kids don't see a single commercial.

PBS: Be kind! Learn to read!
I literally once heard on NPR radio on the way to work that WoW players speaking out against gold farming was a racist act by white men (ironically a sexist/racist assumption about people who play that game, plenty of non-white/non-males who play), because the gold farmers are primarily foreigners (to the US). I'll never forget that moment because I got honked at for taking too long to move after the red light I was stopped at turned green, because of my having turned down to the radio and saying "What?!" as I looked incredulously at it after hearing it, and the light happened to change right in that moment, lol.
Let's not pretend PBS/NPR is immune to bias, lol.
Stopped tuning in to it on the way to work soon after that, haha.
