Familiarity  most of the news includes the events happening in Britain's political world and what are PM are doing to support
Amplitude - COP-26 involved many political leaders from around the world who came together to discuss the issues of global warming.

Negativity - speaking about our slowly dying planet as it burns up is almost threatening the population of what the world will look like if we don't do anything about it.
