Still on the News hour

(edited)

The very first time I tune in the news channel was not because I really had interest in it but that I also wanted to be current and have something to say when am with folks. Back then at my former residence, I had a good number of friends who loves watching the news with their parents while me on the other hand hated something boring and that's how I classified the news to be so I don't even watch it with my dad.

But then whenever I meet with my friends I always feel left behind once they divert the topic of discuss into what they watch on tv or heard on the radio. I wasn't so happy because I also wanted to feel among in every discussion that was brought up so I started to tune in one of the most popular TV station here in my country home. AIT became my favorite of all, I know when it's time for the news hour and even when my dad is not back from work you still get to find me in front of the TV paying close attention to every details passed. This continued for a while and I found myself loving the news over and over again.

At first, I believed every single information I heard since they were updating us on the happenings in the country and moreover I wasn't there to witness if it happened or not so I believed the news. There wasn't even an epitome of doubt that those individuals were hiding stuffs from us because why should they and I guess then it wasn't just me that didn't doubt them everyone believed as well. My dad would be like Ene pay attention to what they are saying should incase i didn't return back early for work and I was so glad that too I never felt left alone as I also have contributions to make whenever am with my friends.

Things have indeed changed and I now find it even disgusting to watch the news. They no longer put up with the truth and most of the things said there is for their selfish interests. One don't even know which and which not to believe as each stations now cast out what they feel they should say and not the actual truth. My neighbor some years back who was a news caster sometimes comes back home and be like; you guys should not believe all the things you hear say, as the editor edits so many things from the real scrip saying it's unhealthy for public consumption concerning some issues which they end up saying little or nothing about it.

The only way we get to know the truth is when personally an eye witness testify about his or her encounter about what happened without taking it to the media that way we get to know the truth of what really happened.
