Is the news too depressing?

The Digital News Report 2023 gave almost the exact same appraisal of the global situation as it did last year, reporting that engagement with the news both in the UK and around the world is lower than it was a few years ago. Thank you to Alan, in Kirkby Stephen, who gave confirmation as to what the drivers of this change might be, and some insight into how these issues might be resolved.
