I have to agree. It seems like media in general is trying to get as many views/ clicks as possible and sadly negative information tends to garner more attention.

In addition to ignoring the news, it also helps to sift through what type of content we consume.

But personally, I found that a key factor is balance - being physically active, while constraining media time down to an hour or less. I don’t just mean exercise here, but rather anything physical, like doing the dishes or doing a puzzle as a hobby.

Anything analogue can clear your mind and improve your general mood.
