Fear and Catastrophe Sell Newpapers


Have you noticed that no matter how good the news, someone has to write a piece about how the good news is really bad?  

Housing prices go up. How will people be able to afford houses?  

Cancer is cured. Will this kill Social Security?  

Health care for all.  Are you prepared for the doctor shortage?  

Wages go up.  Are you ready to be replaced by a machine? 

Life discovered on Mars. Are you prepared for the space plague from the new illegal aliens?  

You win the lottery.  Why lottery winners routinely divorce, declare bankruptcy, and become alcoholic wretches.
