I'm NOT a psychologist - Doom scrolling has a devastating impact.
And I didn't get that from Newsweek so that's a plus in the credibility score.
I used to read that magazine in the 80's and 90's and feel like it used to have some good journalism. I remember doing a school report on their Hiroshima article in a magazine that came out in 1984 if I remember correctly. It was fascinating to 5th grade me. Oh how the mighty have fallen.
Although that smug conservative prick that had the column on the last page was always worthless.
30 years ago we used it as a textbook in Contemporary Issues in high school.
