Moscow man sues Yandex for publishing so much bad news his hair fell out

Bad news makes some people want to rip out their hair. But one Russian man claims reading it caused his to simply fall out.

A Moscow resident, who says he’s suffering permanent stress and is losing his locks after reading too many negative news stories is suing Russia’s Yandex News for 1 million rubles (around $15,000).

Roman Maslennikov argues that the overwhelming number of stories featuring bad news on Russia’s leading aggregator and search engine, caused him to go bald, his lawyer Vladimir Zhiganov told RIA Novosti.
