And the prevailing wind of the mainstream media to print opinion and to offer some incendiary piece instead of just the hard news, just the facts. To be fair, the advertisers notice how many clicks that are directed toward any potential site. It is a contest now to find the most "catching" title lines.
And the fact that people are always interested reading about bad behavior. Always. Ask any journalist. It is the human condition, and it helps us to judge how to stay safe and alive. Survival of the realistic.

hmm.....not sure how to respond.
It appeared to me that this thread was about adult children living in The Villages.
Suddenly it has switched to the "mainstream media" (I sure hope the source of the news that this thread WAS directed at is not considered a member of such)
Your post is not addressing the issue involved in the thread...as always it is switched to media coverage instead of the REAL issue of the thread.
Nobody was or is discussing the media.
It has been suggested that The Villages has a high crime rate.....It has been suggested that much of that is due to children coming from the Villages.......
My responses have been to the thread.....you seem to want to talk about the media...think that might need a new thread.
I certainly am not self righteous....just believe in truth and accuracy, and that is what my posts have been geared at and always on the subject. Yes, I offered my opinion, which I will be glad to post links within this forum, that I do not understand why people need to discuss other people publicly and offer opinions on real personal folks that they do not know or know their circumstances. I have and will continue to maintain that labeling and making judgements without facts is wrong in every case, and in every single venue.
