Leroy Sievers writes in today's Nightline email:

Periodically, people will say that they are tired of bad news, that they want to hear some good news. But every time someone tries to do it, it fails. In the end, people care about when things go wrong. If we came on each night and said, "Everything was fine today, tune in tomorrow," I would very quickly be out of work. But do we distort the whole story by just focusing on the bad things?
