Why is Falling Rent Framed as Bad News?

The Missing Middle with Mike Moffatt and Cara Stern

Rents are down in some college towns, and some are crediting the government's international student reforms. In news stories about rents falling, the media often frame price reductions as a bad thing, even though it’s a huge relief for students. Mike and Cara discuss the price drops and why the media tend to ignore the positive side of the story.
