People are intrigued with disasters. Trainwrecks, car crashes, war, mayem, murder, chaos makes good news. How many times do you need to hear the radio/tv state, the sox are the bestest team that has ever been assembled. Watch the news, how many great good person stories are on there, now compare that to how many news stories are about a young man was shot 900 times in an apparant gang shooting. Now Jim smith with a breaking story on someone who fell off of a bridge.
But we all know if the Sox were the 3rd or 4th worst team in baseball that they'd get almost no coverage. Double standard.
