It is easy to say 'boycott MSM' but living in a country and not knowing what is happening isn't good for our knowledge before we form our opinions. So, despite knowing the propaganda being spread through mainstream media by BN, I normally watch Nightline on TV3. But last night was tortuous, having to listening to Najib's cheap shots at Pakatan and Anwar in particular. It was blatant unfair campaigning using government machinery, well before the announcement of a date for the GE, and definitely not within campaign period as there is none yet. What are the Election Commissioners doing with such unfair and overt actions by the incumbent PM and DPM?
How should we judge a government?
In Malaysia, if you don't watch television or read newspapers, you are uninformed; but if you do, you are misinformed!
"If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing." - Malcolm X
Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience - Mark Twain
Why we should be against censorship in a court of law: Publicity is the very soul of justice … it keeps the judge himself, while trying, under trial. - Jeremy Bentham
"Our government is like a baby's alimentary canal, with a happy appetite at one end and no
responsibility at the other. " - Ronald Reagan
Government fed by the people
