Why the TV News Loves Tsunamis

Carolyn Dean MD ND | Wednesday, March 3, 2010

Rainbow after tsunami warning in Maui.
Here’s a photo I took, the day after the earthquake in Chile, of the “aftermath” of the tsunami that never hit Hawaii.

Last weekend, I listened to endless predictions (on my computer — I don’t own a TV) of a tsunami from the Chilean earthquake drowning Hawaii. It only reinforced what I have always said about the mainstream news: It’s trying to scare you out of your mind so you’ll go buy the stuff they advertise on their commercials.

Now, of course, I appreciate the tsunami warning – living here on this rock in the Pacific. To help stay positive, I threw a “Tsunami Party” inviting friends from the Maui shore to our house above the flood lines.

We watched the non-event as the news continued its “what could have happened” horror stories (from an alternative dimension where Hawaii is drowned under two mile high waves).

Why couldn’t they celebrate the fact we averted certain death (or at least some really inconvenient power outages)?

Needless to say, keep the news at arms length. They made people think the H1N1 would exterminate millions. Then they tried to convince the world that an airline passenger with a firecracker in his underwear signaled another 911.

This is just unnecessary stress. Stay informed but don’t get snowed under!

P.S. Click here to view a funny video, Everything is Okay, about how the mainstream news keeps people scared so they’ll buy more things they can’t afford.

P.P.S. One of the best ways I know to relieve stress and fear is not by shopping for stuff you don’t need – it’s with Meridian Tapping (EFT). Today’s the last day of the World Tapping Summit. But I heard they are replaying day one plus giving out some other free audios. So it’s not too late if you haven’t attended. Click here for more information.
