The media covers bad news because it sells better. They've been doing this since newspapers became popular. What's going to sell more papers, "Barbara Streisand is killed in bloody car crash," or "Genius solves all economic problems" ? Seriously...

Somedays I feel like the best option is to just stop paying attention to it and encouraging others to do the same.
Amen, brother.

You have to ban some things, in my opinion. I am sure you would have a lot of irritated people if they started playing bestiality and child porn on local television channels for entertainment. Complete freedom does not exist anyway. That wont happen unless we become an Anarchy.
Nacht, I disagree. People will be irritated no matter what is shown on local television channels. Complete freedom exists in everyone. You choose what to expose yourself to. You choose what to ignore.
