Apocalypse Not

I really hope the media is getting tired of constant dooms day scenarios.

From the “get a grip file.”

The past half century has brought us warnings of population explosions, global famines, plagues, water wars, oil exhaustion, mineral shortages, falling sperm counts, thinning ozone, acidifying rain, nuclear winters, Y2K bugs, mad cow epidemics, killer bees, sex-change fish, cell-phone-induced brain-cancer epidemics, and climate catastrophes.

So far all of these specters have turned out to be exaggerated.

I really hope the media is getting tired of constant dooms day scenarios.  It is cheap reporting bordering on being unethical.
