Topic of the day: Why does bad news travel faster than good news?

Jude 'Engees' Okoye gives one million naira to brain tumor patient. Jude doesn't trend on twitter. K.Solo assaults wife. K.Solo trends. RMD tells Linda to go get a life. Linda and RMD trend.

Why does bad news travel faster than good ones? Please share your thoughts.

Meanwhile I'm going to be MIA for a few hours. Sorry! :-)

In journalism bad news is good news........so dts y it sells more dan d oda(UNiversity of lagos masscumm grad)

omoyibo said...

Simple reason why bad news travels fast is that of the negativity sells. The average person would rather talk about negative stuff than they would positive. Compare comment count on your blog, positive vs negative post and you'll see. It's easier for the average person to be negative than it's for them to be positive. Positivity is a conscious effort, just my 2 cents

Linda, why do you always have to draw attention to yourself? The 'pity party' crowd has dispersed! In case you act all innocent and behave like you have no lre wszWhy not another example other thn the RMD case?

The heart of man is desperately evil and wicked,as most times human beings like ourselves want to see the downfall of others.I hope this answers your question.

Bad news spreads faster because of our concern and curiousity. Sometimes good new spreads faster, though. We usually hear about weddings faster than divorces but this probably because people don’t make big announcements about divorces

LMFAO @Rmd tells Linda to get a life, rmd and linda trends.. Lol. U know Sh*T is Cray.. People prefer talking bout downfalls than uprising and its very sad!!

Truth said...

Because blogs like yours post more bad news than good news,u make your readers enjoy the bad news more than good news,90% of your post = bad news what you expect?people love the negativity you feed them with

debisi said...

I think its because bad news triggers our curiosity, makes us want to learn more, and ultimately easily influences our emotions.

That is why journalists say bad news is good news. We love things that happen suddenly, unsusal,gripping and exposing

Good question! Its unfortunately natural. Misery loves company. People are more curious about the dark side of humanity. Guess our world is really fucked up.

No one celebrates good intentions, motives, deeds genuine anymore! Evil has overtaken the land, only the strong can survive. We need good old moral values back into our lives and not vanity. May God continue to bless you Jude, pls don't let this deter you from doing good deeds. Its on record for you by God, no-one can repay you for that. It will be lip service. The Bible says, He who gives to the poor lends to God. So imagine lending to the creator?!

Anonymous said...

Cause the evil in the world outweighs the good. Most people are happy for your downfall rather than your success

Anonymous said...

It's because you had a selfish motive for wanting it to trend....so Jude will feel like he owes the fact that he's trending to you, and ask you out on a date.....desperado oshi! Like the hits on ur blog was not enough to show that people were appreciative.....pls look elsewhere ashawo! Jude is not stupid....even if he falls for ur scheme, he'll still discover d kind of pretentious thing you are. If you like no post am.

bad news is wat everybody wants to hear, it is natural we are configured to think bad, act bad, feel bad. that is why we get jealous when we hear that our friends are ahead of us why we remain at a good position. it takes a wise and a good man to remain happy when we hear good news generally. even the media (cnn, bbc, aljazeera, presstv, sky news, AIT, NTA) all spread bad news becos it is the order of the day. Boko haram bombed sokoto, it spread it wild fire, but when a man donates to charity, the media wont get it on the news.

Good news is wide spread and is supposed to be the background and widely expected. Bad news is abnormal and supposed to the figure and least expected. Using the background and figure studies, one can easily spot the figure (bad news), which easily stands out from the background and noticed.

Bad news are boosted from the sender by plenty megabytes of bad belle wey go increase the rate of propulsion. The receiver too go dey produce serious amounts of stomach acid wey go attract the news like magnet.

Good news on the other hand be like person wey dey swim for ogbonna soup. All the jara in form of playa haters and ppl ready to rain on one's parade go prevent any hasty movement.

Bad news travel fast cos with people generally.. especially when you are from the bottom class and you see and interact with people that "supposedly" have all the best stuff in the world, there comes the envy and jealousy and bad blood starts to develop and then as soon as they hear something bad has happened they help spread the news cos the feel the person was a show off or snub so deserves anything bad that happens to them....

Angeleyez said...

I guess it's bcos most bad news come with a bit of controversy. Most bad news v numerous versions as 2 wOt rili happened n pple luv gossip n speculation. It adds a bit of mystery which most pple find intriguing. Good news on d other hand, is in most cases, precise n devoid of controversy, wot's d fun it dat? Lol! V u noticed pple's reactions 2 a testimony abt a person who narrowly missed a ghastly accident vis-a vis a story of a person who actually died in same accident? My point exactly!

Nilla said...

I guess its because most people are always so eager to hear about the bad things happening to people rather than the good things that is happening or has happened to them.

I had a friend like that once! All she wants to hear from me is how i broke up with that guy, why i left my job, sad stuffs. Anytime i wanna tell her good stuffs that happened i always hesitates cause i know she would just *yinmu* on it and say "Abeg, jist beta jari'

So lindalin, people will rather hear all the bad stuff and spread it rather than share in your joy!

Linda Bad News Spreads Faster Than Good News Thanks To People Like You

Anonymous said...

Psychologically speaking, people do think of bad things than good. People only wish for good things, but their thinking is full of bad, bad things. So also the richer the thinking the faster the news goes. thus makes bad news travel faster than good news. In most cases people doubt the reallity and possibility of the good news so they don't bother spreading it. Just tell someone that Obasanjo's new wife gave birth to a baby boy or say Obasanjo had an accident, people tends to believe the later than the former news. PERIOD ..... from my customised BlackBerry that has no berry

Linda what is your own with jude giving out money? It isn't a new thing to help people in need so stop making a mountain out of a mole hill. I really don't see why that should be something to trend on twitter. I am not saying they shouldn't be appreciated but saying he should "trend" is off the edge.

Anonymous said...

Linda, it is a well known fact that bad news travel faster than good news. It needs no explanations. However, it hurts me that you sometimes like to dwell on irrelevant things. Jude Okoye donated a million Naira to the brain tumor patient and over 200 messages from your readers praising his kindheartedness and praying for him as well. He doesn't need people dropping messages for him on twitter because the good Lord has blessed him already; he doesn't need mere mortals like us saying anything on his kindness.
However, for K-Solo bashing his wife – I think you were the person who made the story travel fast because I don’t even know the guy in question. If you had not taken your time to be listening to or publishing that his so called yeye wife’s nonsense on your blog God knows that most people wouldn’t have known anything about their boxing arena home.
For you and RMD, I think you took the piss and I am glad the way RMD maturely put you in your place.
Linda, we need you to do more educative stuff on your blog.

Unknown said...

Linda, I think bad news travels faster than good ones because people like you enjoy broadcasting bad news more than good ones. Just take a look at your previous posts and tell me how many good news you have there?

Well, I still think you are doing a great job; you've informed me of a lot that I never knew about. Thanks.

Hi Linda,

Pls i'll like to call your attention to what is going on at the baggage area at MMIA. I came into the country a few days ago with my family, waited for about 3 hours for our suitcases, just to get home and find out that virtually all we came with had been stolen at the baggage area. Apparently, what they are doing is delaying larger suitcases, ransacking them and helping themselves with whatever they want.
This is totally appalling! I've thought about where to lodge my complaint, but cldnt think of any where else, thus this mail. Pls if you can throw more light on this issue on your blog so that FAAN and the general public become aware of this disgusting act. Thanks and stay blessed!

The reason why bad news travels quicker than good news is because the predominant psyche governing the atmosphere on earth is negative and sensitive to negativism, in addition humankind by virtue of its nature and inclination has a definitely dark side seeking for some form of recognition in lieu of evil .The prince of the world (Satan)has some influence of which only God through regenerated human kind through Christ can subdue.
The world is governed by fear ,uncertainty and is fuelled by taking more than you can give so the direction of the dominant psyche of most of human kind is by nature evil and wicked. According to genesis after the flood God said to Noah that although the inclination of humankind is towards evil seed time and harvest will never cease.
The heart of humankind is desperately wicked according to Pauls account in the book of Acts.

It trends because people love controversy. By the way your feud with RMD is not bad news.

Unknown said...

When you say news is bad is depends on the perspective by which you classify it as either bad or good news.

A bad news will definitely spread like wild fire if there is a touch of sensationalism in it and if it does involve public figures.

However, good news can attract such attention but human psychological get to wants to be entertained by the bad news the more.
