more BAD NEWS!

channelnewsasia has not failed to maintain the slide in their journalistic standards. you know, if once or twice- i'd take it as an anomaly. but they just keep proving me wrong. what the fuck is -this-?? primary school ah? nvm the structure, but my goodness the english. WTF. appalling sia.

"And if you are ready, Dennis he is about to share a true ghost story with us."

"..he chose to keep mum, bit his teeth and got over with the filming.."

"The director was still oblivious to what was happening until the moment when they were taking the last shot, the director started coughing badly."

it sounds to me like CNA badly needs a subeditor. i know it's time to cut costs but this isn't the way to do it at all, guys.. especially if the editor seems so unabashed about passing off such substandard articles as being newsworthy. it's not someone's blog- it's supposed to be our national news channel. and, if this was directly lifted from a radio interview transcript then all i have to say is WTF. why not have something more singaporeans would be interested in.. say, "How the Lees spend their defamation moolah". i'm not so bothered with what foreigners think of our media, but more with the nonsense that sporeans have to put up with.
