Yup, blocking the news groups was something I did. Half baked articles and idiotic, ranting, comments aren't worth my time. I don't watch the news since it revolves around either fluff or fear mongering. I pretty much glance at a news compilation app and scan headlines, blocking subjects that are there as rage bait. I'm very selective about what I read now.
My basic rule is there is no point in getting upset about things you have zero control over and/or don't have the slightest effect on you.
