That brief phase of euphoric hope that warmed even the cold-pressed hearts of the press after Obama's election win? Gone. Vanished into the greedy, needy, rush for news that grabs attention.
There are plenty of depressing actual facts to report, so you would think that would be enough.
But no, our media feel the need to serve up heaping helpings of dire speculation on a dismal future. It's as if they want society to collapse into chaos so they have something interesting to report - and maybe sell tickets to.
It's paranoia sold as a commodity. Let's not buy.
