Remember the old newspaper maxim: "If it bleeds, it leads". The corollary to that is "If it doesn't bleed, it's not worth reporting"

The corollary to "No news is good news." is "Good news is not news."

a Marine, who was on leave and came home for the holidays, started firing in an apartment parking lot. Before anyone was harmed, another man aimed his permitted concealed handgun at the attacker and ordered him to put down his weapon

I wouldn't talk that way to a Marine without donning my CCW Sash first.
