[Winona] new topic

I believe that the answer is simple.

Unfortunately, bad news or better yet, terrifying news sells better than
good news.   I may be oversimplifying.

  Something I personally enjoy discussing when I'm able:

  Why does the American media since WW2  try to terrify the public with it's
reporting?

  It does not cover much of the REAL  good America, which is everywhere if
you look for it, but tends to prefer to make the public fearful and
distrusting of their government.
  I realize that a fearful public is easier to control than a bunch of free
thinkers.
  Any other suggestions?
