That's a good suggestion. I set up a Pi-Hole just to try it out and it works pretty good right out of the box.
You probably have a feature in your cable modem to block sites.
As far as "News" goes, I have AP, Reuters, and HN bookmarked and I scan them in the morning with my cup of coffee and when taking a break. None of those have much hyperbole screaming at you.
I'll offer that you make it a point to spend your web time exploring and learning.
I guess what I'm offering is you can block sites with a Pi-Hole but you may need to think about how you use the internet and focus on more positive ways to use it with the time you'll have hunkering down.
I've been working from home for over 25 years now. Most of them on web apps. I almost never go to CNN, MSNBC, FOX News, etc. I spend my own time on the web learning and exploring things I'm curious about. Last week I learned how to change the sump pump in the crawl space below my house :D
