Disagree. A constant stream of news unbalanced towards the negative doesn't necessarily reflect what is "reality". Reality contains as many positives as negatives!
> Reality contains as many positives as negatives!
That's an interesting hypothesis, but is it true. There are actually two separate suggestions here:
1. Reality contains as many positives as negatives - possible, interesting philosophical assertion
2. Reality contains as many newsworthy positives as negatives - seems unlikely to me. No-one is really that interested in 'Kitten doesn't die, continues living as normal'.
