Nothing happens by chance

"In the news and entertainment industry, nothing happens by chance."

In Paul Doering's guest appearance in class, he opened and closed lecture with this quote. In today's world, nothing seems to hold more true.

What we read about in the newspaper, or hear about on TV, is only a fraction of what is really going on in the world. The media only tells us what they want us to hear.

Doering said that the media will receive about 650 press releases per week, averaging about 100 per day Monday through Friday,

Of these press releases recieved, about five a week make it to air, four to eight make it to video internet or ABC News Now, about a dozen make it to ABC radio and two or three make it to ABCNews.com.

Of the press releases that don't make it to air, what is the public missing out on? We only hear about which ones are chosen. And this is why nothing happens by chance. It is all planned out.

So what diseases or epidemics are out that the public doesn't know about. What medications that could save lives haven't been talked about yet? Only the news industry will know...
