I'm a massive fan of NPR, and I'll occasionally have either CNN or MSNBC on. Sometimes, though, the news can just be a bit much for me. It seems like 90% of the subjects they cover are negative, depressing, shocking, etc... Why not focus on the more positive things happening in the world, too?

EDIT: That was a rhetorical question... I know why they cover what they cover (it gets better ratings). I just have this naive hope/wish that they may change a bit.
