Morbid Fascination of Downfall.

Why do people have a fascination with another persons downfall or bad times. Are we really a society that doesn't feel good about itself until we can tear an individual down to nothing. Do the media whores only care about ratings so much that Chris Brown cancelling his Twitter account ends up on CNN? Are we such a group of Judgmental people that we have to be all in Tiger Woods life giving unasked for opinions? So people do wrong, make mistakes, make stupid comments,....does it really need this kind of attention? Why must things always focus on the negative? Why does any positive news only get 1 minute of coverage? I don't even know where in the media to find positive news. Its one of the main reasons I don't watch the News and TV. Too much negative and judgmental people. Opinions are like A$$holes. Let's for once find a way to do and be about something positive.
