Regarding news, I have had this self-imposed rule:
* Only check out the first screen of any news web site. No scrolling down, and no clicking links.*
Implementation details: I keep around 10 news sites in a bookmark folder. Through out a day, I right click on the folder and open all of the sites at once, then spend on average 5 to 10 seconds on each site. Do this three or four times each day.

Been pretty happy doing this for a few years now.
