They used to say if it bleeds it reads, but bad news gets top priority because like a car crash or a train wreck people watch.
Good news is an upbeat way to end a news cast and I hear Katie Curic will be doing more positive stuff on CBS News.
We'll see how that works out. If it's a trend all the news networks will start doing it.

The journalist and broadcast co. is getting big $$$$ for
