Controversy also fuels a negativity of their own. For example, the terrorism threads splattered about Off Topic. We're nice to each other in all the other threads. So why do we keep tearing out each other's thoats and flossing our teeth with the vocal cords? Anger. Anger is part of negativity. Anger is part of controversy.
That doesn't mean that negativity is the ONLY thing that is ever reported on the news. "oooh controversy can possibly sometimes be negativity and that must mean it's all that gets reported" - not so.

In fact I personally find it depends on what is going on around the world. If the only thing worth reporting is negative, then that's all they'll cover. Often they'll stay on a subject until they actually find out what happend, and speculate until they do.

Often they cover Nasa developments, political movements, election runs, world records, the olympics, football, baseball (in the states), racing, celebrities, and other important events. - I just think it's that you never notice it.
