Landing Gear malfunction.

It is laughable that this, or any other minor malfunction, even makes the news. It would have been a far more newsworthy event had the gear not been able to be extended. It seems that almost any abnormality, perceived by fare paying passengers as a major problem, is advised to the media who cannot resist the "drama of it all". Having some media spokesman ( or spokeswoman) who come out and make statements in response does not help either. As for "The Crew did a good job", well, isn't that what they are trained to do????
