News Flash

by Claire Tennant

Once, I was chided by a colleague for not watching the news; after all, it was wise to be updated. Further, journalists don’t lie. The family decided to try it.

Today, I wonder why I bother. We are often told part of the news, very few facts and a lot of speculation. As for Mr Trump, Aussie journalists are not in favour, but then alternatively, Mr Biden or our Politicians are in the gun.  We are then reminded how sick we are and need things checked: but we have so few medicos to cope with illness.

Ignorance might be bliss!
