Because the media is controlled by governments and they are controlled by banks. The central bank doesn't like Bitcoin, because they can't control it, like they can with the Euro or other national currencies. So, that's why they bring Bitcoin negative in the news, to destroy it and to keep in control over the money flow.

Media should be critical and btc is so new that it can't have a stable reputation yet
Business need to advertise on media , through which media earn money a lot. BUt here with bitcoin there is no need to advertise it on media because the user of the bitcoin are self advertising it by investing in it and by making trade in it. People make investment in bitcoin , which attract new people to start work with bitcoin, The existing user guide thier friends to join bitcoin for earning good income. In this way bitcoin is advertising it self which is directly ignoring the media for advertisement. Now because bitcoin not pay to media there for the media is against of it.

when ever I found any news about bitcoin it is negative news , i am confused why traditional mass media always against bitcoin ?
Media is full of fake and the main reason why media against bitcoin is because the lack of knowledge or information through bitcoin , they just believe that bitcoin is scam , uses for illegal stuffs and so all. They just believe and government control the media and they judge bitcoin without some right amount of knowledge.

They are negative news because this is what attracts people. People like to share bad stuffs. Just think about gossiping. It's traveling with the light speed.

Echoing what's already been said here a dozen times...fear.
That said, there's actually a lot of positive coverage too, but the negativity stems from is dark-web roots, lack of governance, lack of comprehension, etc., etc. Things are changing though. Major investment firms have started trading Bitcoin, Australia's biggest gold refinery (Perth Mint) is about to launch a gold backed crypto, and the Dallas Mavericks are about to start accepting BTC as payment (KFC in Canada already does). All in all, I cal that pretty positive.

Media always support government speech. If they don't do that their channel must be stopped by government. Where some ccountries government against bitcoin, there media always against bitcoin. I think in future government support and accept bitcoin and media also support bicoin.

You should know majority of rich fiat moguls own these media outfits.. So it's not farfetched for most of them to be against crypto in general.. They definitely hate what they can't control...

Actually it is all about marketing like if some newspaper write negativity of bitcoin for sure people may read it and click it so that they gain viewers. Just Because Bitcoin is most popular Crypto in the world. Another Point wanna mark that also bitcoin has little bit cons which they (Media) wanna share with us. And main thing media always support gov't rule. so if gov't ban btc then they (Media) would like post negativity.

There are numerous reasons for such and we have to remember that any thing negative hang around in the mind longer, this is exactly the reason that negative news sells as long as the media is concerned. Having said the above, people generally are yet to understand this new technology and you already answered it by classifying that media as Traditional. They have refuse to follow the current trend of technological advancements in humanity. Humanity has developed in the strive to survive to the extent that the environment has been maximally explored to the utmost benefit of mankind , yet people still see such advancements as a bubble. These are the reasons they don't understand this technology.

Media is against bitcoin because this way they think they attract more popularity and more views. It's their loss. People who get informed from sure sources they have nothing to lose but to win

I believe it's the negative feedback of online transaction and since bitcoin is an online currency most people attribute it to fraud

I think the media is not against. media or <newswriters> are too fond of exaggerating a story like it is positive let alone negative. back again all of the results obtained, want the pros or cons of it all back news again and back again from what the value of financial results obtained from the media.

It's part of journalism, raising ratings and so on, but sometimes it does not meet the actual journalistic norms. The content of the writing is sometimes not based on the results of deep obeservasi, so impressed counter to cryptocurrency when raising the negative issue. But there are many more neutral media, providing news and information better and informative.

Most mass media always give news so that they will be favored by government and some of them are owned by government. So do not be surprise.

I don't know what news mass media you are looking for but if it is all bad talks or news about bitcoin then stay away from such, those are possibly pure politically motivated and probably banks fanatic news agency

the media is either controlled by the govs or by big money. Those 2 need canonmeat to feed themselves. So if you have a way to step out of line, that's a definate no-go as far as they are concerned. Hence, their anti-attitude.
Most of the followers in the population hardly have a brain to think for themselves so they believe whatever the govs and media tell them.
It really is that simple.

Because negative things should be reported for the knowledge of people. We need to know what are the underlying causes of every circumstances. Yet most of the time it is used negatively, some spreads FUD and trolling. News should be for prevention and not the one that would cause trouble.
On the contrary. Not all news are negative mate. There are news about Japan actions involving bitcoins as an example.
