It looks like we're starting out 2015 on a great note, with regard to a couple of the latest scandals surrounding some news reporters lying about some of their experiences or reporting things that simply were untrue. And, in these individuals' professions, they're 'on-the-record', so to speak. Why did they lie? Hard to know. We might never know the ultimate reasons behind why the individuals chose to 'embellish' things (why does anyone do that...and most of us DO do that at times, right?), but I think we might be able to find a 'silver lining' in it all...if we can use the lessons-learned to demand better. Not only from news reporters, but from all the other sources of "untruths" we are bombarded with every day.
The medical community in America seems to be trying hard to get people to agree that everyone should be vaccinated against some of the diseases vaccinations are available for. The theory is that if everyone is vaccinated, the organisms responsible for the diseases will ultimately go away, since their "success rate" of infecting people will be minimal (hopefully!) and they will disappear.
I'm no expert in these things, but I don't know if bacterium or viruses responsible for some of humanity's diseases will ever really 'go away', since they are part of the natural processes of life on earth, I think.
Latest news! Money causes stress! Seriously? Who knew? Funny thing! Ok, so there's a recent article at Yahoo! Health that tells us many people are highly stressed about money.
