It only feeds

May 13, 2008

In my area, I hear this quite allot. Everyone who is near a good group of people could hear this to, “The media is evil.”. Response? No. I have been, quite often now actually, giving the media more of my thought attention and then I came to the realization(which I am sure has been done a while ago to.), that the media puts what they know will get them more ratings, what they know we want to hear, and what they know would seem interesting to us. Amazing how we characterize people for something that if in the position, we’d all find logical.

Am I giving them an excuse to meddle in people’s lives just because they are known? No. Am I defending them? No. All I am doing here, is expressing how I think the situation is.

Consider this, ready? The world news stations everywhere are told to report things as it needs to be known, and not report a ton of nonsense just to make a story. Problem solved, right? WRONG!

With that mindset, the media news would remain off of the air for a majority of the week, and when they do come on, not many will listens. What happens then? Most likely the networks will soon drop the media news, unemployed many, but harming who? Us. Now when there is something we want to know, or need to know, that is so god forsaken urgent we need the news, it’s not there. Now, let’s consider all the strong points for parents, shall we?

Your child gets kidnapped, and you want the world to get around fast(Of course you do), you look to the news! But, it’s not there since it was shut down. A defective product(Also seemingly growing in communities) has been reported. How will you find out ever so quickly?

Bottom-Line is people, the world revolves like this, and I did it do, and I am sorry I did. But the news people are just making livings to.
