Well, that's actually not true. There are quite a few live coaches and the likes making their living on positive writing. And there a quite a few writers, like Scott Alexander, which, while not being all positive, definitely don't need to or want to paint an overly dark or dramatic picture.

In the more conventional news sector, on the other hand, this is probably true.

If you look at revenue, they are the exception that proves the rule though right? 90-95% of the revenue is in the other camp, depending on how you define it.

For every life coach able to make a living, I’m guessing there are 10-20 business consultants, therapists, psychologists, etc. called in to fix a problem no?
