Why does the medical community insist upon regularly scaring migraine sufferers to death thru media stories?

Migraines, especially those with auras are very scary things to live with. More than a few migraine sufferers have committed suicide rather than continue to endure these monsters after all treatment options have come up short. Yet, every 6 months on average, there will be a story run on the nightly news or as an internet headline to the effect of "New Study Shows Migraine Sufferers 8 Times More Likely To Suffer Stroke Than Non Sufferers" or the recent, "Studies Link Migraine to Brain Damage". These stories are all repetitive in nature (2007's "new revelations" are the same, almost verbatim, as those which were run last year, and the previous year, etc etc) Who is real-world-spamming Migraineurs with these horror stories and for what purpose??? It's not as if it's some sort of ailment that most people can actually DO something about in response to a public health alert.

There are also stories that link migraines to a protective role in long term brain function!
I really think it depends on the drug they are trying to sell at the time
