Sensationalized?

The Miami Heat winning the NBA finals, the CJ Corona trial conclusion, Tulfo-Barreto-Santiago spectacle at NAIA 3, price of gasoline going down, Jessica Sanchez worldwide phenomenon, the Paquiao-Bradley controversial bout, typhoons... name your news, did I mentioned some petty crimes being reported everyday in the different morning shows?  It seems that the never ending thirst for information always result in some sensationalized news by the media.



Nevertheless, it its just my opinion... I see that people are curious whenever there are sensational information, even more if its a news... especially if the one involved is famous (like the one that took place in NAIA) and it seems that it is bad publicity considering the participants are considered role models (whether we like it or not) by the general public.  Same thing goes with the Corona thing, why does people always been curious with negative publicity?  Was it because that it was more entertaining than your regular soap opera on TV?  Oh by the way, the trial became a soap!  We are entertained, while we learn... especially with the workings of the law, which I think a positive thing considering I knew little about the judicial system and the inner workings of it!

"We live, we learn" - quoted from a song from Alanis Morisette... we live and tell about it to the world, especially to the ones who are famous to be involved in such circumstances and we hopefully learn from their mistakes and there might come a time that we may use that learning in our own personal lives.

May it be negative or positive... sensationalism is now a part of our everyday lives.  Quoting from a song from Ace of Base, "we live in a free world, I whistle down the wind... carry on smiling and the world will smile with you", news such as the things we encounter everyday are normal nowadays as we only need to look at each one on a positive note and the result of it will also emit a positive effect in our lives!

Cheers!
