"To read a newspaper is to refrain from reading something worthwhile. The first discipline of education must therefore be to refuse resolutely to feed the mind with canned chatter". - Aleister Crowley
Reasons to agree:
- Newspapers can not tell you everything you need to know about a subject, because if they did what would you read tomorrow? They want to spoon feed information out a little at a time.
