1) I think all those sentences have the same meaning. Am I right?
2) Are all of them grammatical?

I'd have to admit they're all grammatically possible but they're all unnatural. I think what you're trying to say is "These days, a lot of people tend to know only irrelevant trivia, not anything about important news" (or something similar).

Yes, that's what I was trying to say. Please, tell me a natural way to express that idea.

Do you think it's likely that I gave you an unnatural way of saying it in post #2?
