Donโt go fox hunting. That makes you a monster.
Donโt play Norwich City.

Iโm a journalist and Iโm changing the way I read news. This is how.
Sometimes it's healthy to do something you love less, and differently.
This resonates so much for me, particularly the part about reading the news - not people's reactions to the news, or the most shocking details isolated from context.
