Recently , I had been watching a lot of news.

Well , it is so disappointing. The world of News has become so commercialised. As I watched the news on channel 8 these few days, it seemed like there are a lot of news on bodies being dismembered or being thrown off the building. I am not saying that all these are not important. But something caught my attention. Ever since the "huang na" Hooha , the news media had been reporting cases like these. Is the news media presenting what is rational or are they just presenting what the audience want to see to keep up the TV rating? I mean thousands of people are dying each day due to poverty or even Aids , doesn't all these stir up our concern even more? Again , I am not saying that all these bodies being dismembered are of no concern to us , but sometimes, we need to weigh the importance of issues and not just present what will be interesting to the audience. Also , I feel that those news are being reported too excessively. I mean if I have a choice , I would rather see the incidence of HIV case in Africa now than some lawsuits procedures of the case. In the end , all we want to find out is the verdict , so why waste time reporting the progress of the case? Doesn't news media looks more like a gossip tabloid rather than a informative source for the audience? I do admit there are some substantial news being reported but there are just far too little.....Sighzzz...
