What are people's strategy's for consuming news?

My main intake of news is OPB during the 20 minute drive to work. They usually cover morning topics about Oregon and Portland, followed by BBC Topline which gives me an overview of global stories. I personally feel like this is enough to keep me generally informed, but if a story interests me I’ll usually spend some time doing some googling around it. I’ve always felt like listening to the news doesn’t stress me out, nor does skimming twitter headlines and hot takes. I think the only thing global-eventish is that the sound of low-flying airplanes kind of freaks me out, which sucks when you live across a flat suburban plain from an international airport.
