News Overload

News overload occurs when people receive an excessive amount of information from multiple sources—such as TV, social media, and news websites—about many topics. This constant stream can overwhelm individuals, making it difficult to process, prioritize, or distinguish between important and trivial news. As a result, people may feel anxious, stressed, or disengaged, and critical issues can be overlooked amidst the flood of updates. In today's digital age, the rapid and abundant flow of news contributes significantly to this phenomenon, impacting how individuals perceive and respond to current events.
