So-called “news avoidance” is routinely cited as a key factor in the multi-crisis facing the business of journalism, but it is not clear to me that there is a definitive understanding of what “news avoidance” actually means, and who is responsible for it.Of course, the truth is that it is a complex and nuanced phenomenon with no single cause or solution, but that is inconvenient for an industry which craves simple answers – particularly ones which do not require that industry to change its behaviour in any way.
