    Our generation don’t watch the news... ❌ 📺 We don’t read newspapers ❌ 📰 We don’t listen to the radio ❌ 📻 We consume things differently ✅ We get fed information all the time but only in bits and pieces. Never the full story. And who knows what’s accurate? 🤷♀️ But there's so many important matters going on in the world... that we never want to be uninformed or ignorant 😔 Everyday I read The Knowledge, a FREE daily newsletter that takes me 5 minutes to read and helps me make sense of the news 👏 Their team of editors read hundreds of trusted media sources from around the world, so I don’t have to question the accuracy of where I get my news 🤩 The team and I love it, and we wanted to share that with you guys incase you were feeling the same way as us!! It’s completely free and you can sign up at https://lnkd.in/grwaa3_z AD - part of a paid partnership - but I’ve been a reader for a long time!!

    🦃 Yes, you read that right! One of America’s weirder political traditions involves the president “pardoning” a turkey before Thanksgiving, and thus sparing it from the chop, says The Washington Post. It became an annual event in 1989, under George HW Bush. Before that, in 1963, John F Kennedy was presented with a bird from the turkey industry, with a sign around its neck reading: “GOOD EATING, MR PRESIDENT!” He demurred, remarking “we’ll just let this one grow”. And in 1863, Abraham Lincoln’s 10-year-old son Tad successfully persuaded his father to pen a presidential pardon for the bird meant for their Christmas table, arguing it had “as much a right to live as anyone”.
