The media tends to focus on doom-and-gloom stories, because sensationalist headlines attract larger audiences. However, when journalists go so far as to misrepresent facts and sway the public in one direction or another, these stories can be dangerous. This is especially true when talking about a new technology that has the potential to change lives for the better. Public opinion can mean the difference between this potential being realised, or crushed completely.

The title of this thread and the article apply to everything. The media only ever focuses on the bad (good news for people who love bad news), and education is the thing needed for everything else. If people really did educate themselves they would have a batter attitude and understanding of everything, but sadly they don't.
