Journalism Ethics

There is this article written in the Chinese paper today (wan bao) on my grand aunt! the reporter went to interview her as a follow up on a post on omy.sg by some netizen.. and he manage to come up with half a page of over sensationalize news.. which amazes me..

In the article there were detailed information on names of her children and all.. and there was this part about how she earn only 8 dollars a day from collecting card board and still have t0 split the $ with her brother to support him.. and it goes on about how sad her life but she is very strong willed and can support herself..

It amazes me because..

firstly - she is deaf and dumb.. even after so many years of living w her i cant understand her totally.. a reporter whom met her for the first time can get so much out of her.. truly amazing..

Next- the fact about how she earns so little and needs to support herself blah blah.. but collecting cardboard is a means to past time and her children gives her ample allowance.. she aint that miserable!

and..she does not support her brother! in fact my aunt do give him allowance and he collects cardboard as well.. and he is doing even better than her!

This whole article paints such a grim picture of my family.. like we do not take care of our elders and all.. which is not true at all.. these journalist are writing at the expense of one's reputation and the truth!

what happened to principles of Journalism like - truthfulness, accountability to public, objectivity??

Project


Presentations are finally over for this sem.. time to pause and breath a little.. but there are still deadlines coming up.. sigh. and after that its going to be exams! what a dread!



And this sem..my house seem to be a new venue for projects.. due to its very central location.. (now you know boon keng is not ulu at all! ) my house looks like a lan gaming shop with all the laptops..

i should start charging for electricity!

well, it was not all work and no fun.. besides project.. 60 percent of the time is devoted to watching funny videos on YouTube, poker games, eating durian, trying to jam, analysing Singapore pools (bp, cad,zj) and sleeping (for zj).. but we still manage to get things done..


and the most funny thing was how we tried to play this communication/team building game in my hse... and we cant find blind fold.. so participants are given blue bags instead! they look like they are gng to b executed la! it was hilarious! you can catch the vid on facebook!


anyway.. presentation standards have really gone up this sem in sde.. mus say that its really getting competitive especially for the HR module! pray that mr low likes us! oh and cad nana eug n me just went for the US work and travel interview.. it was more like a session to address your concerns.. and if all goes well we will be in six flags in New Jersey next summer hols!

Flash Mob

Flash Mob.. the next big publicity stunt in Spore..

A flash mob (or flashmob) is a large group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, perform an unusual action for a brief time, then quickly disperse (wiki)



this one is in raffles city shopping centre..



They really catch their audiences by suprise.. it feels like in the movie Enchanted where the people start singing and dancing in the park! Those 2 flash mobs were publicity for the up coming dans festival at Esplanade! so far the largest scale flash mob done in spore i think.. i think we will be seeing more of such things.. cus its very new and fresh.. you know how singaporeans like fads..
