I watch a lot of news on TV, and most of it is bad news about murders, assault, robberies, arrests. The best news I heard today was about the US National Guard celebrating its 380th birthday today. Who knew the National Guard had been around so long? Did you hear any good news on TV today that you'd like to share?

Bad news attract more audience. I guess that is why the media focus more on that type of news. Good news are boring. I haven't read any good news today. In fact, I haven't even looked at the news. As they say, no news is good news.

You are right most of the news networks will go with the bad news for the ratings.

I find it a bit sad that I'm scratching my head to come up with good news. I'm not sure what the National Guard is. Is it a volunteer organisation?

It is a branch of the military which trains to handle domestic crises such as the aftermath of hurricanes, fires or with civil unrest.

@JudyEv With the hurricane damage and forest fires this past year they have had plenty to do!

@clrumfelt Thanks for that. I'm sure they're kept really busy.

No, sorry, I didn't hear any good news on TV this morning. I am so sick of all those wars all over and so sick of CNN as all they show is Trump and more Trump.

It does get kind of monotonous seeing different people say the same thing over and over again. That's what most of the news networks do.
