Pit bulls were bred a long time ago to fight other dogs, originally it was for hunting/baiting. They still have the potential to be more aggressive, but who would willingly breed a dog with aggressive traits anymore? There hasn't been a need or a market for aggressive dogs in a long time.
As far as pitbull bite strength is concerned, there are many breeds with stronger bites that also have aggressive tendencies. Notably rottweilers and german shepards.
I land on the fence as they aren't the most dangerous dog around, it's a prime example of sensationalism creating fear.
