It's hard to turn away from the news. It's almost all bad and completely sensationalized. I know that I will be horrified by what lies beyond a headline reading, "Man decapitates 5-year-old sister as officer watches." But it's like I can't turn away.
What if the news was happier? Or better yet, what if we replaced all the people in headlines with cute, furry animals?
Quick try with CNN:
Thousands of bunnies protest G-20
Follow the trail of a cereal honey bee
Cops question two kittens about missing mitten
Another sex scandal rocks dog obedience school
Cat decapitates mouse as squirrels watch
Actually, that may have made it creepier.
