MAN! everytime i turn on to watch my local news I see it all. Everything imaginable from family crys to people getting ripped off.

I just turned on Fox 11 news here in LA and for the first 15 mins, I stared and watched a crazy footage of a horrible chain reaction crash @ the 405 here today. idiot drivers. then stray bullets from these retarded gang fights in South LA killed a wife as she walked in her own living room. 16 shots in the house. what is this (*&*(UY*(UY*( world coming to, everyime i turn on the tv. i hate LA

<< Scandal sells... People like bad news. >>

heres my question though, why? what is so fascinating about a murder, or retarded gangsters shooting at each other, I am well aware that this world is getting worse and worse as the days go by but i dont want the news to remind me. everytime, same crap, i just change the channel. i stopped watching the news.

oi, maybe it's a function of living in l.a.? :D i think people report the bad news because it shows us what needs to be done. no sense in patting ourselves on the back all day.

Danny maybe now you can understand why I barricade myself in the house with a loaded gun.Anyway
don't watch the news especially that loser Paul Moyer on NBC and you'll feel a whole lot better.

The local news is here a lot more peaceful. It's often just too boring to pay any attention to it.

But then again, we don't have that many accidents, shootings etc. here. Maybe two each year if we try really hard :)

The news business and the death business both make their money on someone elses misfortunes.
