Newspapers/websites just want to make money and people tend to read articles that frighten them and/or make them angry. Be careful with what you read/watch and verify with actual statistics.

I put myself on a news-diet a few months back and it massively improved my life. Instead of worrying about the world burning and feeling unable to do anything about it, I have much more energy to actually do things I like and/or find important and am also much more able to invest in deep relationships with friends. I cannot recommend it enough.

Important news will get to you anyway, there is no need to check news outlets every 5 minutes.

Try Dankpods’ YouTube channel, I believe he is into them and has some favourite, though I can’t remember exact model numbers from the top of my head.
