Why journalists are so good in putting a negative spin on EVERYTHING they touch?

For example: I made once a Arcade game (cabinet, code, everything). And took it to Campus Party Brazil.

One of the journalists took a photo and put a label on that photo on their site while I was not near the machine.

The label was:

"Some dude brought this illegal counter-strike server disguised as arcade game." (counter-strike was illegal in Brazil for a time, sadly, despite our constitution also having free speech... but the arcade machine I've made had no networking equipment, I still wonder where the journalist got that idea)

And the most flattering report on the cabinet had as headline: "Game addict bring his own arcade game."

Fuck journalists, they cannot be trusted. (also NONE of the ones that interviewed me avoided twisting my words).
