HOWEVER, why do we need to have pictures of violent exchanges on the home page of the Belfast Telegraph every day?
Do people not realise we are all selling?
Just tonight a friend on the West Coast of the United States, a man who has been deeply helpful in promoting business development here in Belfast, sent me a link to a report of events that we had both been involved with in Silicon Valley and LA this week.
When I clicked the link there beside the story was a picture from 2001 of a group of people trying to topple an Army Jeep. Now I am NOT commenting on the rights or wrongs of the event, or the circumstances, or the quality of the action shot....BUT do we really need to keep regurgitating this stuff?
Can we not focus on positive stories, or current affairs?

We welcome short comments on Belfast Media Group blog postings but you should be aware that, since we've put our names to our articles, we encourage you to do so also. Preference in publication will be given to those who provide an authenticated full name — as is already the case in our newspapers. Comments should be short and relate to the subject matter and, of course, shouldn't be libelous. And remember, if you find that there isn't enough space on our blogs for your views, you can always start your own. There are over two million blogs out there, another one can only benefit the blogosphere.
