What's going on with our TV news?

[4wrider]

I've watched with anticipation the network coverage of the Ondoy flooding and aftermath but sadly I observed that some of many of the "news" are actually promotion of their talents, their political bias and their network. Those who are to objectively report the news have become the object of the news.

Also, there seem to be less and less international, economic news and more of showbiz chizmiz and celebrity news. The more intelligent programs are push back to time slots where only insomniacs can watch.

Is this what they call the dumbing down of television programming? Apparently, the TV executives do it in order to cater to the masses, which, based on the declining quality of our education tend to want more entertainment than knowledge.

Buti na lang may cable tv kami.

Ya bunch of ass clowns on local tv. What ABS did was enough, kaso ginaya din ng GMA and you everyone who wants an update will be fed by celebrities doing "volunteer" work.

Kita mo ung iba, instead pumila ng maayos pinipicturan pa ung mga artista.

wala tayong magagawa, pilipinas tayo eh. sanay tayo sa popularity kaya pati nga ang eleksyon natin, nadadaan sa popularity at hindi sa majority

about sa good programs na may time slot for insomaniacs, dapat agahan ang time slot nila. very informative ang mga yun. pati nga nanay ko, nagagalit kasi ang mga magagandang palabas, bakit nasa very late night to midnight na. tapos puro daw drama at telenovela ang pinapalabas.

at yung mga artista na nasa telethon, pabayaan nalang natin sila. kung talaga naman kusang loob nilang ginagawa yun, eh good for them...

I also hate those 'horror'-kuno stories of these celebrities. akala mo sobrang hirap yung pinagdaanan nila compared sa ordinaryong Pinoy.
May reality show pa nga sila na kunwari gagawa sila ng extreme /dirty works. Kahit siguro kumain ng ipis, sumalo ng sariwang dumi ng baka at kalabaw gagawin nila (kasi may talent fee).

Pero kung totohanan na, susmaryosep....akala mo mamamatay na dilat ang mata.

Parang nakakairita nga yung mga ibang artista na parang pa-showbiz lang ang dating.

Kahapon, yung balita kay Richard Gutierrez na hawak hawak pa yung hose ng tubig ng bumbero, halatang pa-cute lang eh. Tsaka yung pinapasalamatan sya ni Christine Garcia na naka press con pa. Kakainis tingnan.
