In 2001, many shark attacks were reported in the news in the United States. And a lot of people were scared to swim. But in that year, shark attacks were fewer than usual. The news just reported them more. As a result, people believed that sharks were very dangerous. Actually, sharks do not usually attack humans. This story shows that the news can make us think something is a big problem when it's not.
