It's pretty annoying to read about totally different things on two different newspapers.

Newspapers, journalists... all bounded by self-biases... talking about their own thoughts and understanding while ignoring the facts.

Escalation of tension due to the problem of people reading only from one side of arguments. When listening to both, they would understand the reportes and/or the informants are damn unethical.

I wish i could do sth about it. Just don't understand what's going on. Wana bring all these ppl tgd and fight in front of everyone. And see how they could cheat us, the audience, again.
