I agree with this. It can be informative, but depressing. News outlets mainly focus on what gets them views, which unfortunately is often the negative side of society.

Sometimes I come across news stories online—I rarely seek them out, but, as I said, I end up encountering them whether I want to or not. Occasionally, though—just every once in a while—I do take a look; I like to stay informed about what’s happening so I can remain alert and not fall into the trap of thinking that life is all sunshine and roses. But I don’t check the news often or consistently, because, as others have already pointed out in the comments, it’s depressing—and not just that, it fills you with fear. Seeing so many negative things can actually make you afraid to live your life.
