I can only say that I agree with you and I actually do miss the news: the real news. It's also scary how one has to "verify" self, etc to attend events like the High Holy Days and to hear Doug Emhoff speak, or even to leave a comment for this issue of Inner Judaism..
We are in a strange place...of not being able to trust what we see and hear, and as you said, constantly being asked to 'verify' who we are through 'captchas', blue check marks that we have to pay for (on Twitter/X and other platforms). Of course there are always deeper ramifications to all this...and how ironic that our cultural obsession with the 'self' is juxtaposed amidst all this confusion about the self.
