The fact that a lot of news is downright negative has not escaped journalists and specialists. Unfortunately, since the average reporter or writer doesn’t have editorial control, however, there have emerged a number of new philosophies of how to help people read the news without feeling a constant wave of doom.
While sorting by "positive news” is one way, some journalists believe that it does end up limiting what you see. A more academic approach, taken by some publications, is to focus on constructive news.

Constructive news doesn’t just focus on wholesome or uplifting stories, but on problems while also immediately discussing their solutions. This way the reader is still informed of the issues of the day, but is not left with a lingering feeling of hopelessness. Of course, these sorts of stories still tend to take longer to write.

After all, describing the solution normally means reaching out to experts and specialists and getting their input. This takes a lot of time, so it’s not a useful approach when it comes to breaking news. But if you are feeling like you do need more positive vibes while still keeping yourself informed, it’s a good idea to explore constructive journalism outlets.
