Swine flu

Well there hasn't been any deaths in the U.S. from the swine flu yet, so I don't think it's that much of a very big deal. It is something to be aware of, but there are a lot of other dangers in society besides the swine flu, so they could possibly be using it to publish media. If you ever notice on the news they only talk about the travesties, when it's a very small percentage of the world. They don't want to talk about the good things that are happening because well, then people would not listen to the news. If you keep people scared, then they'll keep watching the news everyday to be aware. As long as you watch the news knowing this, then it's completely fine to watch the news. You shouldn't let the news get to you too much though, you might end up getting paranoid when there's no need.
