jeez - who "rattled" your "cage"?! actually, ''bad news'' isn't the same as ''human interest'', and not all "news" you read is "bad", necessarily. maybe calm "down" a little?

[galama]

there can't be good news without any bad news. that doesn't justify how media conglomerates temper with any of the current affairs in the world. too much is at stake for too many powerful people. the media has the power to control. TV is the mass religion, it doesnt take a genius to figure that out.

on the brighter side of life...our news anchor talks about 'Who Stole the Web Shop mystery' and that's good news

What do expect the media to be: a kind of 'Truman Show'?
Just really try and imagine, just for a second, what a newspaper front page would look like if it carried just good news.
There are wars and earthquakes and death and suffering. It's actually
what we humans are far more interested in (when reading about other humans) It's called "human interest" (a term thought up by the evil media of course). Your neighbour going on holiday with his family to Spain, having a wonderful, coming back healthy and tanned, is dull. Your neighbour going to Spain and being murdered in Ibiza by "Tongy" is much more exciting to read about.
There's blood on that tissue, on the floor of the train, Karl, not Eau de Cologne.

could say that it's it's spirit and approach of the news more than wanting to will the content out
but that'd be useless because this post is basically one big lol.

[boywithjavelin]

Yup. Totally useless.

a kind of "no diary" diary entry today - one less blob of information
Do you feel relieved, Karl ?

[Dunwho]

Im starting to really dig this new direction... pretty cool

[TheBang]

I'm actually feeling a bit of withdrawal, with no (or minimal) diaries and no Twitter updates. At least Facebook is working.

Is this the thread where we talk about the updates on the main site?
I never do that, but the CSN youtube clip still blows my socks off.

For those of similar leanings check out the C&N Another Stoney Evening, ignore the lukewarm AMG review.

This clip has sparked another CSN and related revisit.
