Media Biasness

Something pissed me real off this morning, and it has got to do with straits times.

Well, woke up at 9 but went back to slp at 10..haha. then woke up at 12.30 again. Yest night watched this movie on channel 5 until 4am. HAHA. It's called "Rock Star". Really nice movie, its about the rise to fame of the lead singer of Steel Dragon. The songs they used in the movie were real nice too, like "We all die young", "Blood Pollution" & "Livin' On A Prayer". We all die young sounds nice, the way he managed to hit the high notes when he was at the audition to be lead singer was simply amazing. Livin' On a Prayer, well, do i need to say anything? IT'S BON JOVI~ and blood pollution, the song he sang for his debut concert for steel dragon. Ultimate. The opening was very nice, then he walked down the stairs, but tripped and fell like, one storey? haha. But he still carried on singing, so i thought "blood pollution" was a nice song. =D.

Ok, next, the thing that pissed me off. MEDIA BIASNESS. what's with straits times? The sports section cannot accomodate more soccer news meh? They only report on Chelsea and Man Utd match. Chelsea i can understand, cech red carded, first loss of the season. Man Utd? ok, giggs coming on as a sub to get 2 assists. Wth. So where's my torres!? Hat trick not enough to warrant a place in the sports section at least? This is getting on my nerves. Then it showed again when i was reading at the small section where they showed the teams drawn for carling cup q. final. Wad the.. Man Utd got drawn against barnsley!!! BIG DEAL! wth, they only mentioned that!? I mean, the biggest match for carling q. finals is arsenal vs liverpool leh.

Show some respect, show some fairness in the way you report stuff, Straits Times. Is this how you treat the readers, media biasness, no fairness in the way you report news. I don't see why I should continue reading this piece of crap anymore. Seems like it has slowly turned into the asia version of the S*n, pure crap, piece of rag. I still remember the biasness shown in the articles reported by the S*n on the hillsborough incident. Even though I read it like a few years after the incident, the media biasness was obvious. Taking everything, without thinking whether its wrong or right, and just report. Putting the poor liverpool fans in a bad light. This people lost their family! And all the S*n could report was fans peeing on the dead, stepping over the dead, pickpocketting the dead. Blaming the liverpool fans for whatever that had happened.

Nvm, enough of that, back to study!!! haha, tml got gem test. -_-, but i'm studying maths. =P
