My name is Flywalker and I am a news JUNKY!

My name is Flywalker and I am a news JUNKY!  I am trying to quit my addiction.  How many people on this website watch the news?  I am going to make a guess that the number is around 100%.  I love watching the news.  I feel the need to be informed about what is going on in the world.  The news is a better story than any of the writers in Hollywood can conceive.  Unfortunately today’s news is ever increasingly depressing.  On Sunday nights CBS airs 60 minutes this is one of my favorite news shows, as long as Katie Curic is not on it.  This past Sunday this show had 2 stories that got my blood to boiling.  The first story was about Bernie Madoff.  This human piece of shit needs to be taken into the middle of New York and have every body part torn off violently one at a time.  I am not sure about this part, but I bet there is someone in the SEC that was getting paid off to look the other way.  Once this person is found they too should suffer horriblely.  The second story was about all the drug violence in Mexico.  All I have to say about this is WTF.  How does a govt. let thugs start ruling their country?  My other question is how long until this violence moves off our borders and into our cities and homes at the level that is occurring in Mexico?   My whole point to this rambling is the news is nothing but depressing.  There are no GOOD stories.  Maybe we should all just turn off our TVs and turn on our video games!
