Our media has done a fine job of instilling fear & keeping
the hearth of adrenaline pumping.
It's not just cable 'news.' It's pervasive throughout other programs as well.
Animal planet's channel has been featuring mostly: "The most dangerous & fierce killers"
For quite some time now,
The History channel, A&E & even National Geographic's programming has been heavily geared toward "Catastrophic what if scenarios"
If most folk regularly tune in to this type of fear mongering, it's no wonder they
could be convinced the sky is falling.
