Majority of the world’s news broadcasts focus on what goes wrong every day. Disasters, people’s faults and blunders, lying, cheating, anger, hate, bribing, stealing... Millions of people go to sleep everyday thinking “This was probably the worst day this year”.
Did these events happen? Yes. Were these the only things that happened on that particular day? No. There is a selection involved which aims to focus on the most ‘important’ pieces of news. Currently, the choice of relatively few journalists affects the mood of millions of people that watch the news.
I believe it is crucial for people to have a choice. Choice of an alternative. Choice to recognize that world is not turning only in the direction of doom every day, that in fact, there are many things that are worthwhile happening in an ordinary day. Things worth a smile, worth knowing, worth getting inspired about, things that will show the side of the world we too often choose not to look at. The beautiful one.
