Insight On The Media

Turn on the television,

drive down a major street,

It's everywhere you look;

snaring you into the life of others.

 

Why should we pick up our pens,

our keyboards,

our cameras,

stating what you think is

and knowing what is false.

 

Why should we pick up the newspaper?

What good does it do?

When we always turn to gossip,

we're not learning anything new.

 

Why is this industry

making up stories;

Getting their business' running; yet,

making the lives of others miserable.
