I'd go one step further and say in school, university, college or wherever else, it's more interesting to talk about the kid who got bullied rather than the kid who didn't get bullied. When it goes to such a severity, it makes the person unique and well, I think most people like learning about things that are unique. Granted, it's more interesting if it's closer to one's age group or older.
I mean that bad news sells far better then good news, people enjoy hearing about it. Think about it, why does traffic slow down when an accident occurs? Sure, maybe they shut down a lane so we all have to merge into two instead of three, but that wouldn't take it to a near standstill. You know why? Because deep down inside, every single person, just wants to be able to catch a glimpse of somebody else dying, all we want is to see a body on the side of the road.
