I'm pretty certain when Corbyn's concerned, the headlines are always going to be negative. There is literally nothing he could do within this current shit show, that would ensure "most people" see a positive headline about him.

This is unfortunately true. See https://blog.lboro.ac.uk/crcc/general-election/media-coverage-of-the-2017-general-election-campaign-report-4/ and http://www.lse.ac.uk/media-and-communications/research/research-projects/representations-of-jeremy-corbyn for studies on press bias against labour.

True. But it's more the fact that he's given May an easy win (no-one expected the confidence vote to go any different to how it did).

Loads of people wouldn't even have realised it was an option or something that Corbyn had committed to. Most of those who did realise it was something he'd committed to are probably labour party members who are stuck with the party anyway.
Most people have just seen the headlines. Corbyn tried to depose May and failed. They were thinking she'd already been defeated and has now won something again.
