SUMMARY: Digital tipping screens at many U.S. businesses, including self-serve spots, often pressure customers to tip, leading to “guilt-tipping.” A Talker Research survey of 2,000 adults found Americans now guilt-tip less frequently—4.2 times monthly in 2025 versus 6.3 times in 2024—and plan to tip less overall. Despite this, nearly half feel pressured to tip more than usual, with 20% often or always doing so. Experts note such pressure can cause resentment toward businesses, but companies continue using these screens because they boost tips and help with employee wages. Etiquette advice suggests tipping based on service quality, as these screens are likely here to stay.

SUMMARY: The Atlanta Journal-Constitution (AJC) will cease its print edition by the end of 2023 after 157 years, transitioning to an all-digital format. This change follows a steep decline in print readership as most people now access news via smartphones, with nearly two-thirds of AJC’s subscribers already digital-only. The decision marks Atlanta as the largest U.S. city without a daily printed newspaper. Approximately 30 jobs, mostly part-time, will be cut. While printing is outsourced, the move reflects a broader industry shift. The final print issue will be published on December 31. Despite the change, AJC pledges to continue its journalistic mission digitally.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has announced that it will become a digital-only publication.

SUMMARY: Consumer Reports addresses common nutrition myths amid widespread misinformation. Pilar Ortiz eliminated processed foods after health issues, highlighting confusion in healthy eating. Expert Tricia Calvo advises critically evaluating online claims, especially on social media, and warns against labeling foods as entirely good or bad. For example, seed oils, often criticized for causing inflammation, actually contain omega-6 fats linked to lower cardiovascular risk. Raw milk, touted as nutritious, poses health risks due to bacteria, unlike safer pasteurized milk. Nightshade vegetables’ solanine content is low and not conclusively linked to inflammation. Trust credible sources with medical or nutrition credentials for reliable advice.

What you eat can have a big effect on your health. Knowing which foods are really good for isn’t always easy. Consumer Reports takes a closer look.
