It doesn't bother me. It's part of life. I agree it's sensationalized at times, but, war is war, people get shot, and there's an unbelievable amount of violence in the world. Not acknowledging it is like sticking your head in the sand. You can turn the TV or computer off, of course, but it reminds me of a friend I had years ago. She never watched the news because "it was depressing." Well, OK, but if you are not informed, how can you help the world change?
I don't know. Maybe having a son in the military has hardened me. And, I'm a news junkie and I could never not watch.
