How much do you think the news influences the "behaviors" of both the consumer and the investor?

I totaly agree I hate it when they publish bad news it is not good for the market they do it so the guru's can buy more stock for less they get paid for this **** and we just have to follow the lead other wise we get **** on. Why can't they just tell good news and let the economy grow bigger. My company grows every year so it must not be that bad and I charge more every year and no one complains.
