Gossip or News
Is it me or is it just me!. Are the two big Philippines TV networks making gossip the main news on their daily news event show. The other 3 TV networks are just a government controlled networks so they don't count. The only consolation with these two big networks are their special features or TV shows on informative journalism, tackling what really are relevant and informative. Why do I say these things?, well take a look at the daily news event shows of these two big networks in the afternoon and evening. News are mostly stabbing, burned houses or establishments, known individuals in scandalous situations, stolen vehicles, even movie gossips gets more airtime per topic. Does it not we watch daily news casting for relevant news and information that may affect the populace as a whole and not lives of individuals being the center of the news. Yes their are parts for knowing individual lives but it has it's own venue like gossip shows. Putting gossip shows and individual life stories in scandalous situation must only be major news stories on news event shows if it has relevance to the populace lives and future self well being. News event shows must provide news based on substance -- what cost it ,effects to people, analysis of situation, who or what will provide the solution, what or how was it before, current situation, and/or future situation after a given solution. Basically the last part will just be a hyphotetical future. Where are the statistics or figures for the relevant news -- before, today, and possible tomorrow. If Filipinos prefer gossip than real and relevant news then the problem of the Filipinos are already knocking at the administration's doorstep.
I also noticed that one government controlled channel is trying hard then the other two to give a good image to the current administration. But the guests that this channel gets are goons-like appearance that embodies the look and feel of a corrupt official talking like an allegator.
Oh!. This I cannot let pass by, Take a look at channel 25 (local). They center
their news format on relevant news and science information with less or no gossip news of individual lives and movie personalities. And also channel 5 & 9, I've noticed their news format is becoming more and more innovative.
