Why does hate get more attention than love?

Hypervocal.com has an article on the Rolling Stone's decision to put the picture of the Boston bomber on the cover. In the article, this video was featured.

Jul 17, 2013 The story of Dick Hoyt, who competes with his disabled son Rick in marathons and triathlons, specifically the Boston Marathon.

It is beautiful and talks about love. The love of a father for his son.

I didn't read the Rolling Stone article and I won't. I don't want to know who the man accused of hurting total strangers is. I don't want to know how his friends had no clue what he was like. I sure as hell don't want the focus on him.

We have members of our military and law enforcement suffering to the point of taking their own lives but does the Rolling Stone put them on the cover? They loved so much they were willing to die for the sake of others. The Boston bomber hated so much he was willing to kill anyone. Why does hate always seem to get more attention than love?
