Reporting 12-year old girl committing suicide: Media Sensationalism!

[YJOB]

---

unya unsaon na man ni ron nga naa may bag-ong angle sa kaso?

ipa-exhume man kuno para ma-autopsy kay daghan nagduda nga naay foul play.

bisan ako sa akong bahin, maglisod ko tuo nga ang bata 12 years old naa nay idea unsaon paghikog.
questionable kaayo.

Why the use of propaganda? Why lie the true situation of the country to the people. Is it not the government is all about transparency? sincerity and integrity. Precisely, the government is at war. It is at war because of its own foolishness and the people are made to pay. The present propaganda definitely did not raise the morale of the people. It breeds more contempt against the government given its insensitivity to the plight of the masses.

government about transparency, sincerity and integrity? lol ideally, it should have been but even the country which has the best managed govermnent cant do that. propagandas are needed to reduce despair to the people and attract investors. plus the government became foolish because of the people. if only the candidates didnt spend very large amounts during campaigns, then they might finish projects coz their investment during campaign is not very big. the problem is that many filipinos consider campaigning periods as oppurtunities to recieve money

i saw the girl's family on Wish ko Lang... man, her brother and sister was old enough to help their family, even by just toiling or planting something i think they could generate some income. i think her siblings were just too lazy to help or better yet maybe they still want their parents to manually feed them.

Her brother and sisters also have their own families to attend to. For all we know, they are living a subsistence existence just like their parents.

Why we easily brand peole as lazy when they are poor? Does anyone out there who have grumbling stomach can afford to be lazy. The father was already a construction worker. The mother is a repacker in an odong and misua factory so I dont think it is fair for people to brand them as lazy.

I dont think propaganda is the cure for all this problems. The people will be more inspired if the governent will just be truthful to them and stop fooling them.

The government must take its responsibility. It is there to lead, to provide services to the people. It is there to uplift their lives. It should not shirk everytime an incident happen like this because first and foremost it is their duty to help the people.

What are they doing? They wasted money like the NBN deal and the distribution of cash gifts in the Palace. The government had themselves to blame for the loss of trust and confidence of the people because of its undoing. If I am a struggling individual who can hardly earned a hundred peso a day, then I see people in Malacanang receiving cash gifts by the thousands, what would I think? I would think that here I am toiling everyday earning a living the best that I can, but here is the government wasting the money intended for basic services and livelihood projects.

sakto! Nganong naa man mga tawo nga ing ana ang tawag sa mga pobre?Kana diay mga basurero kay wla man na sila naka tapos eskwela tamad diay na sila?bisag unsaon pa na nila pangita ug kwarta dili gyapn na sapat sa kamahal sa palaliton karon.Bisan gani ang ordinaryo nga factory worker kung wla ka balay nga matawag nimo nga imoha na gyud kulang pa man gani ang budget. Those people who were vctims of calamities and now living in shanties and squatters area,Im sure they are experiencing hardship right now.Are they lazy too?

i didnt say that could cure but it could help. propagandas helped the russians win the war that decided the fate of the world. it made soldiers fight to the last droplet of blood.

remember what rizal said, "the governent is an image of the people".

FYI, Propaganda is everywhere...even in your own backyard... and it depends if its good or bad to us...

the church is doing it for saving souls,
the gov't for managing the affairs of the country,
the media to advertise products or services,
the opposition to criticize the gov't,
the communists to recruit new members and promote their ideals,
the newspaper to relay current events & opinions,
and so on and so forth...

Even if giingon nga gipaningkamotan jud sa papa ang 100 bill, unsaon basin chronic depression na diay to and it cant be cured by just a mere 100 peso bill...doctor ra jud na intawn ang sulbad ana. Na-timingan lng nga poor ila family. Daghan dha ga-suicide ah nga middle or high class nga teens. Look at the U.S., we even heard news of school massacres. That is because naay high depression rate ang U.S.

And besides, the investigators are now wanting to do an autopsy to make sure there is no foul play...

Sorry for my opinion, but ga-sayang sayang lang na ang nanghatag ug cash or in kind sa family...nya media or politics enter dayon...hmmm...sagip kapamilya, tv patrol, gma...ayaw nlng ta...pang ratings or media mileage ra na ilaha...
aanhin mo pa ang damo kung patay na ang kabayo...

As i've said before, ayaw gamita ang poverty as the issue behind the suicide...

Why? Are we at war? Or its just that this unpopular government is trying to whip support from the people?

I am mystified why the government has to employ propaganda to its own people. You direct propaganda to the enemy and not to the people, unless of course you have become the enemy of the people.

If this government is doing the right thing, why make use of propaganda? So the use of propaganda is an admission that something is not right in this present government.

This government is even afraid of its own people. What do this government think of the people. Fools?

The authorities are trying to dispute the suicide of the girl. They want to exhume the body for foul play. They may even make it appear that the child is emotionally unstable. But just look at the diary of the child. It was a diary of a sad, frustrated, hopeless but a normal thinking person.

They say that its a gas explosion at the Glorietta and now they will make it appear the child is insane. They will also make it appear that the child is not frustrated with poverty. Its too late for that. The people have made up their minds and no spin can make it change.

This government is praning that it is hallucinating that it is at war. This government is even afraid of its own people. What do this government think of the people. Fools?

propagandas are not just applicable to wars but also to everyday struggles in life. you face problems better if you are motivated. thats why most trainers tell to a boxer that he's doing great in the match even though he's not because it could motivate him and could upset opponents same goes to teachers who try to motivate students. sometimes they exaggerate things to uplift the spirit of their student.
