“If you don’t read the newspaper, you’re uninformed; if you do, you’re misinformed”

Mark Twain

Simplified Meaning:

When you don't look at any news, you miss out on important information and don't know what's happening in the world. It's like not knowing about a big storm that's coming—you can't prepare for it. But when you do check the news, sometimes it can give you wrong or biased information. Think of it like asking a group of friends what happened in a basketball game; one friend might say their team was awesome and only tell good things, while another friend might think the game was terrible and focus on mistakes. So, you get mixed or even incorrect details. In life, it means you should be careful with the news you read or watch. Look at information from different places and think about it yourself. It helps to be smart about finding trustworthy news sources and not just believe everything you hear or see right away. This way, you understand what's really going on better and can make good decisions based on that knowledge.
