I found this on Facebook and thought it was brilliant. There are so many items I’d like to add under the What You Should Know About heading. I’d also like to change the YOU in the captions to WE on the left side and US on the right.
Sadly, I’m afraid if the news did tell us what we should know about, no one would read it. It’s just too difficult to hear, unless there was always a how- an- individual-can-make-a-difference component added on. That’s really what we need to know.
It would be interesting to see what would happen if they did tell us about these things and not what they think we want to know about, but I must admit, I avoid much of the news now.
I guess it all comes down to ‘selling’ news. They need to report on what people want to hear, or no one would buy the news.
