I decided to capture the news headlines for the whole year of 2017. About 3 headlines every single day.
Why?
To illustrate how we’re all being manipulated by the daily media without us even realising it.
By March I started regretting it, but I continued and have added screenshots of those headlines to a Pinterest board.

I’ve captured 1,100+ headlines about an average of 3 headlines per day.
How did I decide what to pick?
Well I basically decided that if my eye, my attention, my internal guidance system drew me to a particular headline then that’s the one that got selected. Of course I did look out for the major ones, the big news items too. Unfortunately Donald Trump and Brexit obviously feature in abundance because there was some news on both every single day.
I used the Apple News app to tap into the daily news and locate those headlines.
I am delighted to nearly have completed the exercise with just 3 days left and will be taking 2018 off from even looking at the news app.
Have a look through the board and some of the headlines might surprise you.
Enjoy!
