When we were choosing photos and writing cutlines for them today, the tulip picture pretty much made my day. It was so bright and beautiful. It's amazing how one small thing can change your entire mood. Then I thought, if this picture cheered me up, it might do the same for other people, too.
Just imagine if everything on the front page was good news. Then maybe everyone would be a little more optimistic, and could start their day off with a little more spring in their step.
I know, I know; it's rarely news when things go right, but reading story after story of bad news can get depressing after a while. So many people I know are cynical and distrustful because of all the bad things portrayed within the news.
It's unrealistic to have everything on the front page be good news, but it couldn't hurt to toss in a few stories that might help restore people's faith in humanity.
Even though bad news is what some people consider "spinach" journalism, because it is information the public needs to know, is it too much to ask for a little dessert?
