hearing news
Please let me know whether the continuous verb HEARING, is correct in the below sentence.
I am HEARING the news like "Country is in deep recession".
I feel here the word HEARING has very broad meaning. In the sense, I might got the info from various sources like news papers, news channels, from colleagues etc. I need not be exactly hear with EARS. So, I feel we can use HEARING.
Please confirm my understanding. Also please let me know the reason if my understanding is wrong.
Thanks,
Ravi
