What are you thinking about?

I would like the media to report about all the positive things that also happens every day in our world!

But then the reversal of the "reporting" paradigm would lead to an equally skewed product.  It might not serve us any better than what we have now...

The events and tales of our world are a mix of efforts and struggles, successes and defeats... it's really not a problem 'about' the world itself, but the 'science' that accompanies the 'business" of reporting... that science uses statistical metrics to determine what will 'catch your eye,' 'get a rise out of you,' and 'make you click,' 'make you buy.'

As long as the lifeblood of reporting is one of 'revenue streams' we will suffer the persistent focus on that which 'most likely' will engage an audience.

One solution would be a sincere effort to self-moderate... which those raking in the bucks characterize as a pathetic surrender.

"Commerce" has become a caustic, rancid, submission to being pressed, spindled, and mutilated for someone else's gain.
