Is Hudson River Crash 'Good' News? Not Everyone Agrees

I wanted to preserve the poll results from last week asking ou viewers whether they thought the Hudson River plane crash was good news and belonged here, or not. The results might make you wonder...

I would welcome a Hudson River rescue story/video on the site... 72%

I'd rather not see the story about surviving a plane crash... 15%

Not sure... 13%

But, it doesn't surprise me. I am used to this, after 11 years. It is a very narrow range of story that EVERYONE can agree is "good news"

Were you surprised by these numbers?
