Unpredicatbility in Newscasting

Too many newstories that can make your eyebrows arch a little further away from its original poistion. I think it's one of those strategies implemented to break some news so that it's not redundant. News around the world suffered redundancy and it is not a good thing for the world, for the earth that continues to stay alive. Everyone wants news story that will wake up everyone's senses. We all need something new even if its creepy, out of this world, crazy or unbelievable. Know why? It's just the name of the game in the "rat race."

Whether it's unbelievable or not news story make lots of noise to please their listeners and viewers and television networks would like to feast on these news because they are unpredictable.

Recently I heard and watched news on TV about the bid for the Palestine to be a "state" and votes were then passed in the United nations; 138 countries voted and 9 countries were opposed: including Canada, US, Israel and 6 other countries. Where is Palestine? Palestine is in Israel although they are small minority group of ethnic people within that country and they want a "state" of their own and it seems that they  granted statehood. More news to follow and if you want to know what the story is all about better study the History of Israel and Palestine (Canaan) through old books from the library and museums.

Later, on another channel is the story about online scam where people from the Philippines used credit cards to order products from the internet. You know what? Why don't you people just order or buy your goods and other commodities from the many shopping malls near you? Too many department stores in the Philippines. Just a good advice from me. The reason why credit card and online purchase is necessary here in Canada and the US it's because not too many department stores here. No big or huge malls here in Canada that you people in the Philippines are happy about. The distance to travel to the shopping malls are way too far for comfort and if the weather is bad due to cold, snow and other hazards along the road it's best to shop online. And if you don't like being scammed online? Use pre-paid cards. Oh I know you would like to use credit cards because cash and debit's not available. For your own safety? Stop shopping. Just be thrifty. Don't buy anything except food and pay your bills on time and thereby you wont have problem at all.
