Often the news gives two sides of a story in the name of objectivity, when sometimes there really is something unequivocally good or bad about a story.
An example of this is the current congressional gridlock. Everyone that keeps up with politics knows that a lot of important measures and bills are being actively blocked by republican senators and reps, but the news usually reports it as a general congressional problem.
