I recently discovered 1440, a news email which gives you a 5-minute summary of the day's news. They don't know or care how long I spend consuming, so they don't have as much incentive to be melodramatic. I open the email, read it, and that's pretty much it. Much less time, much less melodrama, and if something enormously important happened that day I will still hear about it. It's really a lot more like the financial model and incentives of print newspapers several decades ago.

Before you ask, no, I don't work for or have any financial interest.
