My brother was saying the other day that he thinks the news in general now (from pretty much all the major outlets) seems to have become nothing more than 'drama porn', where those who call themselves 'journalists' feel compelled to over-dramatise pretty much anything and everything (including the use of clichéd hyperbolic lingo) then it's all dropped like a hot potato and then on to the next big 'drama' headlines, ad infinitum.
