Is there anything that you have seen in the news or read on the internet so many times that you don't even care about it anymore?

Every day we are assaulted with numerous different stories from various news sources and social media outlets. From the murder of police officers, sex scandals in the government or Hollywood, or yet another crash or accident involving a military vehicle that resulted in the deaths of service members. Is there any kind of story (i.e. sex scandal, shooting, stolen valor, etc) that you don't even bother to read about anymore because it seems like almost a waste of time or just too overwhelming because of how often it happens?

Anything with a poll in it. Don't care what it is... If we learned nothing from the last political cycle, poll methodology is either a) wrong, or b) maliciously manipulated. The very 1st thing my Probability and Statistics professor said in college was :"The only thing you need to know about statistics is what answer do you want?"

The NFL story got old, but thankfully is gone for the most part. The endless barrage of nit-picking about Trump's personal habits and tweets are not newsworthy, and have worn out their welcome. Anything relating to policy and the impact still are relevant, but the media likes to cobble it all together with his persona. They are failing in their journalistic duty when they do this, because the public can't differentiate between the two areas, and are tuning out things they should not.

Stories I generally ignore:
-Pres Trump stole the 2016 election with the help of the Russians
-Pres Trump is crazy and unfit to be President
-Impeach Trump
-Obamacare is great
-Pres Trump is going to nuke [fill in the blank]
-Guns are evil. Ban private gun ownership.
-God is dead, religion is corrupt, there is no heaven, hell, or God.
