I think it's okay to get some news from social media, but mostly it isn't good. No one should be getting all of their news from social media. So often the news shared is sourced from complete dogshit propaganda and view farming rags. If you're in the US at least, you should be getting most of your news from the associated press. If you really need to watch the news, rather than read it then your only halfway decent options are nightly news broadcasts. If you need to listen to news, NPR is the only halfway decent source that comes to mind.
