Sirius XM: Media's Fear-Mongering Has Gone on Long Enough

as far as the title of the article.. i say that is appropriate for the financial world as a whole. Its sad that in my opinion the media has a good chunk of responsibility in regards the the housing mess. If joe mainstreet keeps hearing gloom and doom on the 5 oclock news eventually that is exactly what you get. Other governments understand this,,,ie S.Korea.. Its the "Financial media gone wild" generation. They know your risk averse and are 10 times more likely to click on a negative story or watch gloom and doom than any other. Shame. Powers that be in this country just can never police or control themselves for the better of the whole.

Media just loves gloom and doom. They KNOW that sells 10 x more than anything else!! Sadly i think the recession, partly created by them, wont be over until they have a more disaster like story to grasp on to for a few months
