Choose an interesting topic for me to research.

So, heres the deal.
I'm going to be investigating something for a week or two solid then write an article about it. I'm going to do this in the vain hope that when I proof read it my eyes will stop bleeding long enough to send it to a number of editors in an attempt to get it published. I'm extremely dedicated to this end. I'll look up sources, conduct interviews, write in pen instead of crayon. No expense will be spared. The rub is I don't know what to investigate for my first article. Whether it should be serious or quirky, reuters standard or cracked.
Being such well read people who obviously have their fingers firmly on the pulse of "whats hot" I'm confident you will point me in the direction of subject material that will help me write an article that people simply can't look away from. 
Much like a train wreck or an ecological disaster that claims an incalculable number of lives. I'm very excited.

Well, I suppose as a writer you want to establish your own niche in some way. What are your interests? What could you see yourself writing about? Or can you write about just about anything?

At this stage you might be overwhlemed with the sheer number of topics, subjects, events, views and questions out there that you can write about. It's a good idea to strip away what you don't want to write about and focus on what you could write about often

Yeah, 'go fuck yourself' probably wouldn't work well.
