In general, the media focuses on the bad and ignores the good. Sites that ignore the bad and focus on the good help offset that a little.

More good news! I love sites like that. There's too much 'bad news' in the world today. I know that bad things happen, but I think that the extent to which people focus on them is part of why people seem to be so depressed and angry today, and why they have so many problems. I know it's not the whole story, but it can't be helping. Yay!! More good news! I love sites like that. There’s too much ‘bad news’ in the world today.
