Fair enough, were the odd ones out these days. I bought a huge flatscreen as a lounge ornament and occasionally watch movies on it off hard-drive. Every time I turn it on it wants to connect to the net but it never will. I thought of using it as a monitor and even bought the cord but then never bothered. There is a lot of documentation about how reading information is better than watching as far as analytical thought is concerned. Reading allows the brain to "think" while the reader is reading whereas video is more of an emotional experience and the watcher does no generally think critically during the process.

I find that I will agree totally with a video segment if it is aligned with my current beliefs on a subject or else dismiss it out of hand if it speaks against them. There is no real thinking taking place in my head, just judgements. I experienced this just an hour ago watching a vid on solar roadways off the EEVblog https://www.eevblog.com/ I thought the whole thing was bullshit but it may actually have had some good information. To me though it was just another dreamer's vision of utopia and all the while they were prattling on about how magical the roadways would be all I could think of was the billions of tons of concrete and steel needed to underpin the whole affair. At one point they showed a section where power etc is routed below the road and when I saw the huge concrete channels I went "Ah Ha! Bullshit" No critical thought in that :)

For this reason I prefer to read my news and other information, a little old fashioned in today's world I know, but sometimes the old ways are the best ways. EDIT: This phenomena isn't universal of course, I admit that, A lot can be learned from video. It just seems to me it's a natural channel for grosser propaganda.
