I love newspaper

Tuesday, 4.30pm, as usual, we have our lecture for media appreciation,and this time, it is something very interesting for me in this class. Because we learn about newspaper!

I have to admit that I love to read newspaper and this is why this time I can give my fully attention in this lecture, I used to read newspaper when I was in my secondary school, although nowadays I seldom read newspaper after entering college, but I do still read online news from the internet, and nowadays I'm addicted to reading 'Malaysiakini', which is a online news about politic, for me it is interesting and I enjoyed reading it too. Today we learn about the process of the daily newspaper and we focus more on 'The Star' newspaper, from this lecture I understand that the editor used to have a daily meeting to decide who will go and get the news and I understand that the newspaper are printed at midnight while we are enjoying sleeping! Basically I learned all the process of the newspaper and I found it so much interesting, and I also understand the concept of the newspaper, the different types of news, category, it is so fun and I enjoyed the lecture for today. I love to read newspaper, this habit was developed when I was around 10 years old, that time I used to read the sports news and I seldom read the world or the local news, the habit soon developed after I entered a boarding school in Genting, mainly is because I have nothing to do in the school so I started to read newspaper when I am free and this good habit develop until I have to read newspaper EVERYDAY after my school ended.

I am so proud that I have a good habit of reading newspaper and I can follow the class especially classes for media appreciation. Reading newspaper can keep you updated, you can get to know what is happening around the world, some of my friends used to say that reading news is boring, the news are the same everyday, but I don't think so, the news are mostly always different and new everyday! Read newspaper if you don't believe it. By reading newspaper you can understand what are your parents talk about, and your parents will definitely feel happy by doing so, newspaper can also give you more knowledge, there is a saying, newspaper can be an alternative way of getting knowledge of the world. I also understand that there are many type of newspaper, for example, National daily newspaper which I read everyday, regional newspaper which is available for a certain states, and also political newspaper such as, Paper Suara Keadilan, Roketkini newspaper. In my own opinion, I think that 'The Star' newspaper is a kind of political newspaper, mainly is because this newspaper is owned by 'MCA', one of the ruling party of Malaysia, and they can always control what the newspaper should write about especially the political news, they will never tell the truth when comes to political news, and they will never publish the truth behind.

I enjoyed the overall classes so far, and I really hope that my interest in this subjects will go on in my future life, and.....dear friends, if you wanted to gain more knowledge about this world, trust me, read newspaper, you will never regret after reading it. Salam Bersih. :)
