Media - Struggled to cope with

A video of the Micheal Jackson Pepsi accident was unveiled a week ago by US weekly. Many trusted that was the crucial turning point to the star to plunge into drug abuse and plastic surgery. I had talked about that in the blog before, and turned out that there was a irrefutable evident. (I lamented that my friend showed dissent when i told the accident to them before, claimed that i was defending MJ. Now i can shut their mouth, HaHa.)
There were more and more news disclosed in the aftermath of the Star's death, strived to overturn the negative image of MJ. In one hand they alleged the accusations made before to the star were forgery, in the other hand they purported the preposterous behavior of MJ was stemmed form his glommy childhood and compelling from his ambient people. Those news seem suing us for the misunderstand to MJ, convicted us that the tragic end of the Star was somehow promoted by us.
I had read a passage from Blog Hoiking, somehow inspired me to think: The media is so overwhelming to us. Pls recalled, who did the most vicious condemn to MJ? Who regularly put MJ in line with outrage and pervert? Yes, ya got it - it was the one now enthusiastically upholding the Star. The media was so influential and we were so susceptible, seemingly we cannot get anything real in the city in the grasp of the newspaper headline. Matrix is no longer a imaginary movie. We were now facing a immenent question: How do you define real?
The answer was apparent: You should have you own independent will and be a critical thinker. But how to procure them was totally an other story. We were weary to see how was our generation "independent" and "critical thinking" in the prior 20th anniversary of 6th June incident. They showed us that thinking contrary with most of the people is independent, speeching decently can make it real. How can us turn away those "talk show" mingled with those assertion from our city? I was sorry to say that obviously we cannot. Despite we cant change it, it didnt mean that we would get use to it. The very key element was that we should always stick to the priciple when coping with those information. You should build up you own unchanged core in you mind to deal with those rapidly changing information. Think proactively sometimes can help you unveil the truth, you should try to set aside your own prejudice and turn to the rational. But how to do it? It depended, I can just give a handful of advise because I was solely a novice. Dousing the drastic emotion and turning into a calmly thinking was something utmost diffcult, worse when you plunged into rage. You just attempted it for once, you would know.
Obviously our government should promptly draw up a law to rein the media and turn around the lenient curb. We need more watchdogs to monitor the information releasing and stop spreading of the public-pleased news. Our news policy apparently needed to reshuffle, but before we made it, we should first shape ourself up to foil those exaggeration.
