humans being bad to humans

[mckitterick]

Okay, changing my daily routine. Turned off the noon-time NPR news show for probably the first time ever. When I feel like this, it's just a bit too much to listen to reports from Iraq - like the bomb-defuser who was targeted and blown up for being good at his job... in front of a hospital.

Why isn't there any good news? Why are humans so awful to one another? Why should we want to save the human species when it's so intent on destroying itself, rotting away its core?

Off to nap for an hour before the competition.

Ditto nottygypsy's comment, above. Good news doesn't sell. That's why COPS is still on the air, but The Puppy Channel fizzled.

It doesn't mean there aren't people out there doing amazing and beautiful things for their fellow human beings. We just don't hear about them on the news. Notice I've stopped listening to NPR? Yeah.

I would have cable if they had The Puppy Channel on it.
