Hello there, reporters. If you’re covering or following the US presidential election, you may be feeling a bit on edge. I thought a lot about what to share today, on the eve of the election, and decided: let’s go with some positive news.
The Good News Movement is an Instagram account run by journalist Michelle Figueroa. You can subscribe for daily tidbits of positive, uplifting news, or you can scroll by and take a look whenever you’re feeling stressed or tired – some time in the next week perhaps?
For example, did you know that African white rhinos are on the rise? Or that busloads of dogs were carted to safety in Hurricane Milton?
Anyone can read the news; you don’t need an Instagram account. But if you’re really not an Insta fan, there are similar efforts at OGN Daily (Only Good News) and the MadeMeSmile group on Reddit.
I’m sure there are plenty of others – what is your go to? Remember to take a break, reporters!
