I agree with most of what you said but I think there is some context missing to her advice to "stop watching the news" that you are omitting. She said this as a direct response or suggestion to people who claim that they wake up with a pit of dread in their stomach every morning due to the political turmoil and strife going on. She is implying that reading about it may be less anxiety provoking and provide a more balanced view, than watching news that comes with a lot of commentary and commercials etc. I don't think this is her advice at large to most people. I had to re-watch to make sure my assumption wasn't out of left field and it is pretty clear to me that comment was directed to those people and not everyone at large.
