News
The top story, and what everyone see on that front page defines the reading for that day. As we talked about in class, once you read one sad news article, it gets hard to keep flipping through and seeing all the same sad stories. Breaking news is supposed to be what's on the front page, but I'm curious as to what justifies the only news to seemingly be bad news, it gets depressing to be honest. Entertainment pieces are there to pick up the tone and break up the bad somewhat, but it's never what you see when you pick up the paper and look at the front page, it's always another kidnapping, or homicide, or even bombings (i.e. Seria). Entertainment can only be so interesting when as well as news, it gets to be about the same people, all the time. For example, not everyone cares about how Miley Cyrus acted out again or another love song by Taylor Swift. It would be interesting to see everyday good news, among people no one might know but stands out among the rest of humanity and maybe even sends a little good into someones day. The digging to find this everyday is probably hard to come by, but if someone were to take the time to find those people, it would definitely be something worth caring about and reading everyday.
