Well… don't watch the news. The news are a business and they want your attention. That's how they make money. It's mostly fear mongering because that's what sells.

Doesn't that tell something about the world we live in?

I think it tells a lot, but not that it's necessarily something new (in that we're devolving). The use of fear mongering is evident throughout history.
