Is There Good News? - Simple Logic #3
Today's topic in my daily vlog is mainstream media and how they work? What is their goal, and how should you react to something that you see on them?
I remember the days when I was a kid, and I remember that I knew who was the guy who ran the ZOO because he was on the TV a lot of times with news about newborn rare animals there... I remember stories about firemen that have saved someone, or the story of some child who won a prize on Championship in Mathematics... And all this was a PART of the main daily news on the national television...
Today, I can remember when I saw something similar to that on ANY TV station... It's all the same copy/paste crap whatever TV station you watch... Same negative stuff everyone... Counting positive cases all around the world, world fires, explosions, terrorist attacks, hot weather, tornados, hurricanes...
As someone said, every day something wants to kill us... and it's presented that a certain thing will kill exactly YOU, or ME... lol...
But, if we look at the big picture, all this has a lot of sense, from the view of mainstream media... All of them are funded by some organizations (governments, or some interest group), commercials, and they have incentives to keep you in front of THEIR media... It can be a TV, an Internet website, a social media network... As you will find the "continuation" of the story ONLY there... And there is always a continuation... it's a never-ending story...

STOPDo not miss the last post from @hivebuzz:
In my childhood we had 3 channels on TV and we didn't have much of a choice what to watch. The stations had a kind of monopole and they had the leisure to show a lot of positive things. Nowadays, there is so much competition for our attention that all the media have to increase the drama to keep us. That's the reason why we can only see what is shocking on Medias and that's why I wouldn't call it press anymore. It's a mechanisme to attract our attention to sell us stuff we don't need :-)
Agree with this, but on the other side it's incredible that they are showing the same stuff everywhere! lol...
and yes... selling/manipulation machine in 24/7 work...
Exactly, since media more or less cut all real journalist positions, they buy the same articles from the same news agencies.... In my eyes their business model is not up to date anymore... lol
They did it on purpose. Just to hold our attention and you can get benefit from that. There are a lot of possible things happening around us but you do not see that much on TV. Thank you @ph1102 for bringing this up.
It looks that TV has become the last place for checking what is actually happening in the world :)
Well said. ;)
