I agree with this post.

Sometimes, no most times, the media goes out of its way to make things MORE horrible or are incredibly insensitive for the sake of sensatialism.

I hate the way I sometimes get the feeling that news outlets get happy and excited when something horrible happens because it means they have something new with which to hook viewers/readers. "Another mass killing! Woo-hoo! Start composing dramatic animations and composing theme music for our reports!"
