The media love to report on the next disaster that's going to kill us.
For a while, it was nuclear war. Then rain forest depletion. There were holes in the ozone layer, international terrorists, asbestos, trans fats, cell phones...
They try out a new one each week. When one sticks, the stories will run until people lose interest. Then the threat will go away, and a new one will take its place.
I'm opening the comments to predictions of The Next Great Disaster. Unless you believe we'll all be killed before the media moves on. If you read the Toronto Star, you probably believe we were all killed 3 weeks ago.
