HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill. — Sears and AOL News today announced their foray into delivering "good news" at a time when Americans need it most, with a new Web site called Good News Now.
GNN.com delivers the positive pick-me-up that Americans need now more than ever. With a wide variety of news, tips and feel-good stories, Good News Now will help consumers remember that good news does exist. From national news and a focus on green and health-related topics, to learning more about heroes or causes among us, the Web site is a one-stop "shop" for positive news.
"Good News Now addresses the fundamental human need for fulfillment and joy," said Don Hamblen, Sears' chief marketing officer. "We recognized there was so much negative news out there and people needed a positive break so we developed a site with heart-warming stories on kindness and good deeds."
