News, as it is, still plays an important role in our daily routine. It comes even with the smallest buzz till the highlighted topic regardless of any medium. As news are regularly shown on TV and newspapers, news nowadays are also shown on various medium citing on various topics. While news has the potential to lead current events for plethora of ideas or solution, misinterpretation of these current problems can also cause uprising and unwanted tension.
Okay, first, personal info, if you guys are interested for this topic, do leave some comments or ideas on the issue. For me, some of my favorite news to dig info from is The Star, whether it's online (which I more or less frequently go) or just next to the library or any stores where the good old newspapers are (as I still prefer reading manually). This is also my father's favorite, being holding that paper since day 1 of my life. But still, that paper alone is not enough, since different publishers will have different approach in the same topic, thus having me to read using a cross-disciplinary research approach, whether it's from other papers, online, stuff like this and that which in some cases really matter. You can't summarize on just one work of news in this case, since the central of topic here is somewhat defines the overall issue being shown to public eye. That's why newspapers and especially the internet were some of the reliable source that I do research and conclude into, as you can re-read it anytime if you can take good care of your medium. So just hearing a rumor is not enough for me, I have to go deeper just to find out what exactly what is going on. So whoever have the simplification of news is just for those seasoned person and to be considered out of date (sad but true, it always happens...), it's really the vice versa of things, in fact, that simplification doesn't really matter at all. Depending on how alert you are, you will usually dig in something out of the ordinary, even when it seems less relevant.
So based on this personal info and experiences, I can say (but NOT conclude) that news are still some of the important updates in our daily lives, and liked it or not, the public loves it, either good buzz or the rather malicious info. In my opinion, news are but many of other issues that we must cope with in our everyday lives. Still, it's best to keep ourselves up to date. As always, they are not perfect, but it's really always WE who have the ability to make it better or for worse.
