Exclusive News?

My routine for the morning involves prepping myself for work, it includes listening to the radio for some form of "entertainment" as well as idle chatter. Something invigorating to "shock" and energise my already dull grey matter. After the normal obligatory sequence of events, I naturally picked up the newspaper; the one that I am most used to in terms of layout and sections is non other than The Star, which claims a daily readership in the numbers of millions. Maybe I am a sucker for figures, but I was perhaps drawn to the fact that a million other Malaysians are drawn and is reading the same type of crap as I am.

And the next thing that struck me is, WTF..... literally wtf, the headlines is splattered with the news of the impending matrimony of Siti and her 20 year older fiancee? Well let me reiterate my WTF again. It's totally inappropriate not to mention ludicrous. Why the heck that I, one of the nameless millions that pay rm 1.20 have to read tabloid junks like this? Damn, I should probably stop "donating" my money to rediculous narrow minded dickheads in The Star.

Isn't there loads of news happening around the world? Isn't mayhem in the Middle East and Human sufferings warrants a head line news? As compared to the "soon" to be fucked Siti? And to top it, she is just silly to be with someone who can be her dad. But hey this is her perogative and I am totally fine with it. But that is exclusive news? Come-on...... If this doesn't pisses off anyone; what else can?

If you argue that Malaysian papers should give priority to Malaysian news, I fully agree, aren't there anymore worth while news to report? Hey if it's in the subsequent variety pages, this out of luck cannine, for one have no problems with that. But Exclusive front page material? Anyway report to me the Mini Tsunami that has happen in Indonesia, a neighbouring country, however small and ? insignificant in the eyes of the editors are news to me.

For an old dog with nothing to do, yeah, blogging seems to be the only outlet that I can have to express this rediculous episode apart from writing to the "Opinions section". Perhaps the next headlines should scream, "I had sex with my new proton"..... now that would be worth splurging rm 1.20 on!
