So interesting to see this thread. I carefully curate and limit my intake and am intensely aware of the anger economy news organizations have built to drive engagement. Glad to hear others are avoiding being a product and are staying healthy.

There is a large segment of media devoted to outrage but if you only follow serious news it's hard not to be outraged at things that unequivocally outrageous. Just watch a live feed of C-SPAN without commentary and there's plenty of insanity. And it's not the media had to tell me Russia invading Ukraine should make me angry.
