Note: According to Neil Postman, our society has become saturated with information, leading to a state of meaningless abundance where we are unable to discern what is truly significant or irrelevant, resulting in a lack of understanding about what matters most. This glut of information can ultimately lead to a disorientation and disconnection from the world around us, causing us to lose touch with meaningful experiences and relationships.
This news digest offers a concise summary of the key stories, trends, and insights from both mainstream and alternative media sources, providing readers with a comprehensive understanding of the current state of affairs across various information landscapes. By covering a broad range of topics and perspectives, this digest aims to inform, educate, and inspire readers to stay ahead of the curve in today's rapidly changing world.
Mainstream Media Insights

By questioning and verifying information, readers can cut through the spin and gain a more accurate understanding of the world, rather than relying on a one-sided narrative.

Alternative Media Insights
Note: As we venture into the realm of alternative media reporting, it is essential to acknowledge that not all sources are created equal. While some outlets offer crucial counter-narratives and insights, others pose a significant risk of misinformation, perpetuating controlled opposition or serving as wolves in sheep's clothing, intent on misleading their audience with agendas designed to confuse rather than inform.

Is it possible that exercise could protect your brain function? A healthy cognitive function is vital for navigating daily life, but it is something many take for granted until it starts to slip. Alzheimer's disease is an example of what happens when cognitive decline increases. Alzheimer's disease is caused by the build up of amyloid plaques and tangles in the brain, which causes brain cell death and impairs memory, language and daily functioning. An estimated 47 million people worldwide are living with dementia, with Alzheimer's disease accounting for 40% to 80% of these cases. As the global population ages, the number is expected to surge to 131 million. In the United States alone, the prevalence of Alzheimer's among those aged 65 and older is projected to rise significantly, with life expectancy after diagnosis typically ranging from three to nine years.

"SMART METERS have lithium ion batteries." This should be forbidden everywhere in the world. When these batteries catch fire, they can go from 140 degrees to 6000 degrees in a few seconds. The smart meter is connected to the home's copper wiring which is designed to carry electricity. The copper wires are great at heat transfer. When these supposed forest fires hit neighborhoods but burn more homes than trees, the culprit in the unusual fire forensics looks to be the batteries. It's no wonder these homes are burned to the ground. The homes are burning from the inside out. The copper wires carry extreme heat to every corner of the home....
