good news

  • hyke weir

i'm pretty fed up with constant BAD NEWS! however there is a simple solution, "GOOD NEWS".
i think that the bbc should dedicate 5 minutes at least to a short news feed at an appropriate time for max audience, showing the days good news. Its very simple and could easily be done on a lopw budget. I'm sure it would givew everyone a lift. please contact me for the full concept.
thankyou.

Agreed, I think something along these lines would be a very good idea.

This is genius. I've often thought that positive news events get short shrift these days. If I were the BBC I'd be inclined to make a little feature of it on the home page and watch how many hits it gets. People need something like this.

so glad to comeacross your comment about a new kind of news show. Gives me hope that theres still people out there that see things the way I do. And understand that the only reason theres so mutch doom & gloom serounding our lives because thats all we ever get from the news on TV.
They should spend as mutch time as they do colectting all the bad news and use the same amount of time in colectting GOO news. If that was on every single day, just like the regular news shorely it would lift our spirits.
Ide be most pleased if you would like to get back to me to have a chat about it all. Yuor rite it would be easy to be done. Why as'nt it already.
thanks Paddy

Simple and great idea even if good is sometimes very relative. Still I buy the concept. When do we start?

So could the next step be true news vs false news, in which the list changes with relevance to hindsight? Or news that ends vs stories that are still running?
I could see a big appeal in the ability to click an old story and see the apparent or final outcome.
