Default Your newsreading habits

I've noticed two sets of very different thread-starters on here lately. There's the quirky, funny and unusual news stories (posted mostly by bbfan1991 ) and then there's the brutal, shocking and quite miserable stories (started by...well anyone really).

Ignoring arista's because he's incapable of emotion, which do you think you are more drawn to?

And in general, would you say that you are more attracted to happy and uplifting news stories or tragedy-porn? I know I've just undermined the seriousness of global tragedies or personal horrors but there's a mentality in some people to embrace the morbid and try and outbid each other with how much they care.

So I was just wondering what kinds of news stories engage the biggest emotional response from you.
