News on the Hour: Are We Being Blinded by Government-Controlled Media?

Usually I don't watch news on the television but eventually when grandma ask me to turn on the television for news, I somehow watch those news on the hour.


I believe each news channel sells their own agenda on television to keep the blindfold on people mind and eyes.

In my state news channels are more like assigned by the government officials to say and show good things to people but still most of the time news are depressing since there's nothing good happening in the country.

News on the Hour: Petrol is cheap now

Just found out petrol is about 9rs more cheap now and people are going to be so much happy about it and won't even realize that they increased it's price like twice more

Than reduced a little % just to give everyone hopium that they're fine no need to come to streets and cry about it in some protest.

This tactic has been used by this government from a long time.

Was watching another news that a PIA plane mistakenly landed in Karachi when it was supposed to land in Peshawar

And came out that pilot was retired army officer from aviation.. so, I guess it all makes sense since they don't want to give opportunity to deserving candidate who can do job the right way.

But it's just a mistake according to them which is normal.. though it's not and could've crashed that plane in some accident.

Anyways I believe it happend on purpose, they just had some VIP cargo or people that needed to land in that city.


Even Journalists are sold out?

Another news I came across was government announced "plots aka real estate or land" to journalists as a reward or token of appreciation for doing a good job.

Like seriously? Imagine getting plots because you're lifting weights I mean big boys ball on television like 24/7.

Even the kids nowadays knows which journalist on TV is supporting which political party and there's entirety of news channels being controlled by these political parties and retarded army.

The News on Television Vs Internet

I don't trust what they show us on television because everything that's shown on mainstream is controlled and planned to make you think what they want.

But on internet you see these news channels getting exposed when they post a fake news or controversial one.

Nowadays I've started finding news on Reddit, X used to be another platform where I can get news about everything going on in the country.

Mainstream media didn't showed or talked about internet being down until it was discussed by everyone on the internet since everyone used VPNs and than they covered the part where they tested some firewall to block and censor internet..

It's like news on internet literally exposed everything being shown in the television and that's exactly why these news channels are dying slowly.


Wrapping Up...

In the end the less you know the better when it comes to news because it's not always true as well as it's mostly depressing and problems in life is already enough, so don't want these news to be another problem.

Though I guess mainstream news is same everywhere, it's controlled and narrative is led by someone... Still I'd love to know if your country journalist are any good who cover truth at all cost. Feel free to share your thoughts about it in the comments.
