Blog the Bad News?

I have a question for my readers (both of them - hi Mom!). What is your collective opionion on the blogging of bad news in the world? There is plenty of bad news, but it is pretty depressing. I can forward on the information, but do my fans want to know? Alternitavely, I usually try to post the good news out there and countries struggling for freedom, but for every fledgling democracy there are 10 who are being violently oppressed.

Advice?
