News vs Gossip

TV “news” is mostly gossip, I try not to watch much of it.

Gossip is defined as: casual conversation or reports about others, typically involving details that are not confirmed as being true.

News is defined as: newly received information, especially about recent or important events.

There is news in amongst the gossip that TV news reports as news. But it is intended to alarm, anger or titillate more than it intends to inform. This came up because Hamas started a new war in Israel and I, like millions of others, wanted to know how a country and people I am deeply connected to are doing. Watching TV is the best available way and it is awful.
