Notion of News
While news report is expected to fair and just, ironically, their choice of news has already shown it is a bias in the first place. Why is a news becomes a news? The one who decided what to be reported indeed has indicated that he or she has some thoughts within the issue. Even with fair and just reporting tone, a simple robbing event indeed concealed a notion to let people think of the robber is always bad. Everything being mentioned in the news has already be considered. It is also an element to let people know who and what is in there.
As time goes by, I started to realize news report is not a fair show. It is a power of affecting people view on an issue. No matter how fair the reporting tone is, the standing point is already decided. It is just like a formal paparazzi, the only difference is the reporting subject. When I watch a news now, the only thing I normally would think of is why is this news being reported?
