Where and who do we trust?
Reading this on can also assume that it applies to Singapore. Too bad they did not include Singapore in their survey.
I do not trust the local print and broadcast media to be fair and complete in their reporting of anything. Trust in them was lost a long time ago and it gets to be even more stark during times when there are elections being held.
Is it healthy for this to continue? Who can you trust? I would be happy to trust the media but they have to earn that trust.
For this coming election, many questions need to be answered that I do not see being asked. Instead we see unproductive mudslinging. The thing here is that since the people who would ask these questions are potentially from the non-PAP crowd, whether these get reported by the media is debatable. There are no more Tan Cheng Boks left in the line up from the PAP - or at least, none yet. We need more citizen journalists to report on what is being discussed and debated and to get that info to the voting population - not lobotomized reporting as is seen by the media.
