Sometimes the 'leading stories' are so bizarre that they shouldn't go unchallenged. One today was the "Timaru woman who says "democracy will be over" (in NZ). Why does Yahoo publish NewstalkZB news and not a more balanced source?

Nobody cares if somebody help somebody else change a tire on the way home but you let something bad happen and its on the 6 o'clock news.
Crazy people are almost as good as death.

"News" is a business and those incharge are out to make a buck. They target a given audience and then give them what is believed to be wanted. CNN targets the liberals, Fox targets the conservatives. Flash in the pan.
