The snip highlights that news media is often just entertainment disguised as information. Rather than truly informing people, it brings stress and anxiety and diverts attention away from what is important to individuals. The goal of news websites is to sell advertisements, not provide objective information. Headlines are often clickbait, designed to provoke strong reactions. People are more likely to engage with negative or sensational news rather than positive news. The confusion arises because news media presents itself as virtuous information, leading people to believe that staying informed is a virtuous act. However, the snip emphasizes that information in itself is worthless without true substance and value.
