Lately survivalism has been in the news a lot. Even over the last 5-10 years more and more stories have come out regarding this movement. Some are fair and offer great exposure, however others seem to drive people away by making survivalism look  crazy.

However to the uneducated this is an immediate turnoff.

Here’s some examples of survival related articles in the mainstream media, including MSNBC, the New York Times and the Associated Press.
