It wouldn't be an issue for me, if more nuanced alternatives were as easily available. Tabloid journalism has existed for a long time, but nowdays it seems that it's the only form of mainstream news available. Though I'm not old enough to comment on if things were better eg. 25 years ago.

The current fast paced news environment wouldn't really be an issue, if more complex topics were available in easily digestable form. Currently one has to subscribe to dozens of different places to get reliable information on a broad range of topics.
