Newspapers and television news programs always seem to report about the bad things happening in
society. However, there is a place where readers can find some good news. That place is the website called
HappyNews. The man behind HappyNews is Byron Reese. Reese set up HappyNews because he thought other

news sources were giving people an unbalanced view of the world. Reese said about HappyNews, “The news
media gives you a distorted view of the world by exaggerating bad news, misery, and despair. We’re trying to
balance out the scale.”
Not everyone agrees with Reese’s view, though. Many people think that news sources have a
responsibility to provide news that is helpful to people. People need to know about issues or problems in
today’s society. Then they are better able to make informed decisions about things that affect their daily lives.
Reese said that HappyNews is not trying to stop people from learning about issues or problems. HappyNews is
just trying to provide a balanced picture of today’s world.
By the end of its first month online, HappyNews had more than 70,000 unique readers. About 60 percent
of those readers were women. Something else unique makes HappyNews different from any of the other news
or information websites that are on the Internet. Unlike many other websites, HappyNews gets fan mail from
its readers on a daily basis.
