Benefits of Good News

Your Top 10 good newsletter today was so good. It lifted my spirits more than any other issue. A couple items even choked me up. People need to know the good stuff that is happening, to inspire them to greater heights. We need to know that our efforts are paying off, that we can build a paradise -- and we’re doing it. Thank you for singing this from the hilltops... a most valuable, important service.

Introduction to the Good News Network

| Print |

E-mail

Since 1997, people have turned to the Good News Network for positive news stories to balance the negativity they receive daily in the news.

Fact 1: The U.S. homicide rate dropped in the 1990's by 42 percent, but network news coverage of murders jumped more than 700 percent. (Center for Media and Public Affairs)
Fact 2: People are turning away from mainstream news. On a weekday evening, less than 25 percent of the homes nationwide tune in to ABC, CBS and NBC news — combined. And, newspaper readership is declining steadily.
Fact 3: Young people are learning how positive material can directly affect performance and happiness. A positive psychology course at Harvard is the most popular class on campus with around 850 students enrolled.

News to Enthuse

The Letters from readers testify to the positive outcomes they've experienced since reading the Good News Network. These letters illustrate that good news can change one's outlook and change one's life. It can even change one's health: Researchers at the Harvard University School of Public Health found that optimism cuts the chances of developing heart disease and the rate of lung-decline as we age.

Now in her 10th year of publishing positive news, the editor is convinced by her own personal experiences that health and well being enhance one's life as a result of a daily focus on good news. Read her essay, Why Good News?

Reporters' Questions For the Good News Network

Does this mean you are opposed to the media's negative stories? (Answer)
But good news doesn't sell! People want the blood and gore, not the victories and enlightenment. Will people want good news? Answer:
Past performance proves that people do want the positive:
In newspaper supplements, Parade is the most successful.
The number one magazine for decades was Readers' Digest.
Number one in TV talk for many years was Oprah and her Angel Network.
Leading the prime time dramas was Touched by an Angel.
The public today seems so divided. How can we AGREE on what is 'good' news? Answer: We don't polarize with debate, but unify upon common ground. We believe the common ground upon which we can find agreement as modern citizens is based on seven traditional values listed here.
