It has been going on for a while. Many of them have gone to the hot take reaction style opinion pieces. CNN copied the Fox 'formula' to try to get ratings. The 3 panel yell at each other format with maybe some news possibly scrolling at the bottom. It is not news. It is opinions presented as 'facts' when they are usually curated opinions to hit market share. The stuff before about 2010 was better disguised but it was still very similar to what you observe. Little news, lots of opinions. After that point I think they just stopped bothering to disguise it much.
It is kind of 'interesting' to watch but you are not going to get much out of it. I cut a bunch of that sort of 'news' out of my life. It was not giving me news but curated opinions to have. I found my stress levels were so much nicer.
