There are a few things in life that really makes my hair stand on end (always linked to pleasure or anger ;-), like the manipulation from the media..
I know it sounds boring but...t'is important :P
For me the typical example of what media should not be is CNN. Once again they've proved to be a propaganda channel, not an information one. Actually they are exactly the opposite of information.
Yesterday they showed a video from Bin Laden, and CNN repeated bin laden is threatening america. First, you don't even hear Bin Laden speaking (you only hear a background voice speaking in English, covering any voice anyway), Second, this video is dated from October... and they use it now as if if was the most fresh piece of news! Really!
We should be fighting against any form of intolerance and violence (exactly what Bin Laden represents) with a minimum of intelligence and honesty (to be credible)...
....but instead one of the most famous news chanel talks to people as if they were nothing but idiots. That is a real shame for democracy and integrity.
And I gave just 1 example among 1000 others!
...that's it, nothing to add... Thank you for your patience when I get that passionate :P
