It seems that the majority of the images are of suffering of one sort or another. Do you think this is an accurate reflection of life, or does it just make for catchier headlines? Nobody pays a photojournalist for a picture of a neighbor lending a hand, do they? It's a shame imo.

I agree. I think it is front loaded with suffering, but still all interesting thoughts to ponder (for me). And, yes, sports and suffering are the news, well maybe american idol and dancing with the stars should also be included as a more well rounded assessment.

There's a lot of sports, too. Isn't that the news, sports and suffering?

Good point, and sports can be a form of joy.
