What do you think about this idea of a good news paper or a section devoted to good news. Let me clarify, newspapers web and TV are the most potent filters for staging and decoding the world events. Through these we generate our world view. We use these sources to construct our values and ethics.
What would it mean to you if a news paper devoted a section to good news?
would you like to see this?

I want to know the important news. If it is good or bad it doesn't matter.

I heard Will Smith was producing a magazine/newspaper that was called Good News that proposes the same concept. Maybe you wanna see how their progress has been.

Might go well with my next venture, a haiku version of drudgereport.
At least that way the bad stories will be nice and brief.

--Even though that's bad news, it doesn't linger as long as some drawn out two page story about how the insurgents are taking over and how the US is bogged down and how Bush's approval rating is sinking and how the way is being fought for control of oil, or is it? and...
You get the point.

what's the point in having news if you dont have bad news to go with it? though good and bad are all judgements you have to figure out on your own.
why be biased in your view of the world when you can know a little more truth and be the wiser for it?
