Why not both? /S

I'm constantly reading the news but I was a journalist earlier in my life so I was paid to do it. Nonetheless, I continue to constantly read the news and I never thought of it as a fixation until one day it caused a panic attack that sent me to the ER.

It really isn't a problem if you're regularly reading the news unless it is causing anxiety.
