Does it all really need to get press? Most crime is not news that we need to hear. Why would we want a constant stream of woes? I can see the point of having crime statistics available on demand, but not the point of a push-feed list of crimes in the news - I would think the risk of desensitising us to crime outways any advantage to be gleaned from such reporting. Yes, it seems that the press reporting may be skewed - but I don't think covering all and every crime is the answer.
