My entire existence is politically controversial. I pretty much have to at least be aware of recent political developments since they could affect my ability to live as myself

Then why read news and not directly read the new laws and regulations that were voted and passed, or new proposed laws under discussion?

There's way too much going on to follow all of it, and most of the important stuff isn't written down. By the time the text of bills is available, the politicians and influencers have been discussing things for a long time and the opportunity to do anything about it is nearly gone.

Perhaps we could pay people to follow important topics, politicians, important lobbyists and see what they're doing and claiming they want to do. They could send us summaries to save us time.

We could call those people journalists.
