Earlier quoted context omitted.
Unless it's regarding immediate local emergency that you might need to respond to, breaking news has zero value besides a brain tickle and something to talk about. If you feel you have any kind of mood or attention challenges, as many now do, you might want to double check if it's something you should be optimizing for.
Hard agree. Nearly nothing outside your real personal life is so important it can't be learnt about tomorrow, or next week. There are exceptions; if you have a flight booked that day and didn't learn about the Crowdstrike thing till you got there, that'll be a problem, but it would've been a problem regardless of your immediate knowledge of it.
