| Message | What is the point of allowing false information to be printed in our national newspapers, to be heard on our radios, or seen on our televisions? When reporting the news we must be sure that news companies report facts and not make up the news to suit themselves. If we do that then our society would be worthless based on nothing more than who can make up the best story. |
