How can mysterious deaths and so-called suicides be good news?
Frankly, it has taken me a while to figure that out.
I really had to think hard about it while doing today’s research.
Perhaps that because throughout my career as a reporter, I never liked the way most media rely on the “fuzz and wuzz” mantra.
“Fuzz” was slang for cops, and “wuzz” was slang for the dead. The two combined made for “good stories” that frequently made the front page or the lead in the bulletin.
To me, that was always bad news, yet it made for sales and ratings because many people were, and are, for some reason attracted to the bizarre in life – especially when it comes to the death of others.
However, it is now my considered opinion that the media itself has created that audience, which, I suspect, is a very small fraction of the total population.
Those who don’t like bad news (and lies) tend to stay away from the legacy media, and wisely so – up to a point. Their wisdom is in not buying into the narrative of the day, the flavor of the month, and the propaganda of the year.
The downside to that is that they can be caught totally by surprise, and to their detriment, if they do not at least occasionally take note of the bad stuff – of which there is more than plenty as this global war-behind-the-scenes continues to play out.
And it will keep playing, like a very bad movie, for a good while yet.
That said, this is where bad news becomes good news.
The bad news is that a woman has died of “blunt force trauma” that she suffered when a private jet hit sudden turbulence, and had to make an emergency landing.
