independent news?

whatever happened to that? i have just read thepapers this morning. and i am utterly disgusted at the manner in which the daily blatantly supports a particular party... during the campaigning period!!! it does not take a genius to figure out who owns the daily. whatever happened to independent news reporting. makes you think... can u believe in what you read in the papers anymore??? or it's just a brainwashing tool...? (duh)

i suppose i stopped believing the papers long long time ago. however, due to lack of a good alternative, one can only read the papers and try to figure out what they are trying to distract you from. when the papers talk about a whole new scandal, you have got to look back and see if the previous one was resolved. if not, there is probably a politician involved. then if there are rumours being highlighted in the papers, they are probably slowly easing the idea into your head. so that when the truth is admitted, you don't reel in shock and/or disgust.

if it is not the abovementioned, then they might just be trying to brainwash you to think what they want you to believe.

makes reading the papers alot more challenging, don't you think?

Try the alternative media on the internet. The Sun used to have integrity in reporting the news but since Vincent Tan bought over, people like terrance fernandez and Nadewaran have their columns removed.

For unbiased subscribe to Malaysiakini. Screenshots ( by jeff ooi ) and Malaysia today are another independant source or news.
