Bad news gets more press
By G. Romero Wendorf
Same old story: the bad news gets more attention than does the good.
Case in point: last week, The Drudge Report, which ranks third among most popular political websites, with 21 million monthly unique visitors, carried a link to a KRGV-TV (KRGV.com) news story published Feb. 26th about shots fired from the Mexican side of the river at U.S. Border Patrol agents who were patrolling the border just east of Rio Grande City. Thankfully, no agents were hit.
Breitbart.com also carried the shooting story. Its site garners more than 6 million unique visitors per month.
