There are those who believe that the news bears little relevance to ordinary individuals and that consuming it has little importance to their lives, an opinion I feel is an overstatement as I suggest remaining abreast of current events can have some meaningful impact on our lives.
One of the main reasons the news is often felt to be irrelevant is that a considerable proportion of modern news content seems distant from the immediate concerns of citizens. Reports on celebrity scandals, remote geopolitical disputes, or repetitive commentary often provide little practical value for those focused on work, study, or family responsibilities. As such, at a micro level, individuals may feel justified in viewing news consumption as unproductive, particularly when much of it appears sensational rather than informative. This perspective, however, fails to account for the fact that many aspects of daily decision-making are directly shaped by current affairs.
News relating to public health, economic conditions, transport systems, and education policies can significantly influence how people plan their lives and respond to changing circumstances. Moreover, at a broader societal level, an informed population is essential for effective civic participation and accountability. A more specific example can be found in the realm of geopolitics and economics where commodity prices can be directly influenced by world events, thus affecting business owners, farmers, and even regular citizens. Consequently, while some content may lack relevance, the claim that news has no connection to people’s lives is clearly too absolute.
In conclusion, for the most part I disagree with the statement as news, overall, plays a critical role in shaping both individual choices and societal awareness even though some news may seem irrelevant when viewed in isolation.
有人认为新闻与普通民众几乎无关，关注新闻对生活毫无意义。我认为这种说法言过其实，了解时事其实会对我们的生活产生重要影响。
人们常觉得新闻无关紧要，主要原因是当下大部分新闻内容似乎远离普通人的日常需求。明星八卦、遥远的地缘政治争端、重复的评论，对专注于工作、学习或家庭责任的人而言，往往没什么实际价值。因此从微观角度看，人们觉得关注新闻没用也情有可原，尤其是很多新闻只博眼球、不传递有效信息。但这种看法忽略了一点：日常决策的很多方面，其实都受时事直接影响。
公共卫生、经济状况、交通系统、教育政策相关新闻，会显著影响人们规划生活、应对变化的方式。此外从宏观社会层面，民众了解信息，才能有效参与公共事务、监督社会。举个具体例子：地缘政治和经济领域，大宗商品价格受国际事件直接影响，进而影响企业主、农民，甚至普通民众。因此，尽管部分新闻无关紧要，但 “新闻与生活无关” 的说法，显然过于绝对。
总之，我基本不同意这一观点。整体而言，新闻对个人决策、社会认知都至关重要，即便部分新闻单独看似乎无关紧要。
