Why is it that I have to see depressing news all day about people killing each other and see images of suffering people? I rarely even watch it, but every time I do it's all this sick twisted shit.

Why are people so obsessed with hearing this?




Because it's more exciting than hearing about how Wilhelmina Stoffingson, age 92, was helped crossing the street yesterday by a boy scout troop leader.  :shrug:

There's a lot more technical/business/economic numbers/real political news to talk about than what is said. But I guess when celebrities started showing up on the news I should have known educating the masses about the world was no longer the objective. Now we have great slant pieces to skew people into invading Iraq to take weapons it doesn't have and stop war it doesn't want, while waging war on it.

The news is a great tool I submit ;(
