Journalists are sensationalists these days, a 1% drop is a market crash sometimes as well

I would counter that financial journalists have been sensationalists for a good many years - ever since they found words and phrases like stella;shoot the lights out; surged; free fall; eye watering; fell off a cliff; and a host of other phrases and words. My interaction with journalist whilst still employed was not so much the article but the headline was the all catching consideration. Unfortunately its not the stories that captive the audience it's the audacious headlines. However rest assured that the really pithy and eye catching headlines are still reserved for politics - after all headlines sell newspapers/magazines

We will not be downgraded. Zuma will bribe them.
I started here with nothing and still have most of it left.
