Hey! Tiff_24
Nice meeting you.
I've always despised the relationship between the press and politicians.
About how all the press is afraid to question our politicians just in case they refuse to appear on their show in the future, or to "leak" to that journalist in the future.
The press hardly ever asked a pointed question.
When they do, they never get an answer.
The news story then is described as "controversial" and not that the politician refused to answer the question properly.
Maybe you could do a paper on.....
"If Politicians told Newspapers the truth, would there be riots in the streets?"
Or:
"During a riot, do people buy newspapers or do they steal them?"
We need reporters who blow whistles, like whistle blowers do .... and not just hot air.
Calm

Right on, Calm.
By the way, if newspapers told the truth there would be rioting in the streets at first. Eventually the politicians and greed-heads would learn not to do things they feel compelled to hide though. Then the rioting would end.
