The Problem:
Press newshounds looking for conflict and drama to sell newspapers.

The Social Invention:
I have to admit to being very wiery of reading the papers these days. or even watching the news on TV. everything seems to be gloom and doom. Its as if the media don't believe that good new sells?

So how about an international newspaper that only reports good news and positive upbeat stories. you never know it might catch on and have a knock on effect throughout the world. (lead by example instead of following sheep)

I would point you towards Positive News, but certainly there is nothing mainstream enough.....
