Coronavirus: Actor John Krasinski launches ‘good news’ show to help world cope

Actor John Krasinski is taking it upon himself to spread good news in tough times.

As the world has slowed to a crawl and health care systems have begun to strain under the weight of the coronavirus pandemic, the Massachusetts native said he wanted to spread some hope and inspiration, WFXT reported.

In a tweet last week, Krasinski asked people to send him suggestions for #SomeGoodNews.

Alright everybody, how about #SomeGoodNews ! Send me the stories that have made you feel good this week or the things that just made you smile!

Krasinski compiled the replies he received into a YouTube video and built SGN, Some Good News, a new network he’s running entirely out of his home office.

You can watch his first newscast below.
