The news sucks, flying sucks

I think the news would sound alot different if they owned stock in some of these airlines. Why do they have to spread so much fear? Now, as you may know, I am scared to death of flying and avoid it constantly. But what I don't get is why people start to be afraid to fly after news of a foiled terrorist plot like this.

You should feel GOOD! I mean every day these people are plotting to kill you. This time the good guys won. I don't get it. When it comes to flying, terrorism is the last thing that scares me. It's mechanical failure that I worry about. So when a plane crashes, I actually feel a little bit better because it makes me think the mechanics and inspectors will be paying a little bit more attention than they normally would.
