Selective reporting of western medias----more than 30 Oz ATM
blown up but covered up!!
Bias of western medias--why not report 30 Oz ATM blown up?
Population of Oz is 21 million,4.4 times of SG of 4.8
million
If one ATM is blown up in Singapore,i am sure it will be widely
reported in western
medias,who are hungry about interesting news in this boring but
safe city.
I do not report Oz ATM blown up when it first happened about one
month ago.
I have yet to see how western medias report them.
So far, i have yet to read any of their reporting.
u can see the news from Google by searching Australia + ATM
Why no body report any ATM blown up in Oz--more than 30
cases?
Is it very common in Oz,like Aids in Afracia?
Or like drugs killings in Mexico?
I dunt know the baseline or guidelines of western medias
how to select news in certain countries and make it
a international news.
@@@@@@@@@@
I think Oz is labelled as a Beach and Sun country .
No serious crimes shall be reported.Any reporting of serious
crime
will make readers uncomfortable.That is ,no market for bad
news
about Oz.But there is a very high demand of bad news about
SG.
The country editor and HQ editor of western medias like
SG nad news very much.This is a damn boring country
with less than 5 cases of crimes involving guns,in a year.
Again,they will make sure any gun shot in SG will make
a head line.But they turn a blind eyes to frequent drive by
shooting in Oz!!

BOQ EMILY BOURKE: Last night a family of four were lucky to
escape after their weatherboard home was sprayed with dozens of
bullets. A three-year-old boy suffered a bullet graze.
Superintendent Mark Cooper says police are still
investigating.
MARK COOPER: I don't want to highlight or be irresponsible for
making to many further comments to actually say it's linked to the
outlawed motorcycle gangs. They were targeting the children. Any
speculation like that would be irresponsible.
EMILY BOURKE: While senior police were not available to speak to
PM, it's been reporter that a new elite police unit is
investigating the outbreak of violence among outlawed gangs.
Professor Arthur Veno is based at Monash University in Melbourne
and is an expert on bikie gang culture. He says the war mentality
of the clubs is at the core of the problem.
ARTHUR VENO: So far there's actually been no actual loss of life
but you know the clubs pose a very real risk of escalating past
that.
The Perth war for example, a 10 year
war, that surrounded the Club Deros and Coffin Cheaters over
there, that was tit-for-tat and it started out in this
fashion and it worked up to bigger and bigger things with many,
many murders.
MARK COLVIN: Professor Arthur Veno from Monash University, ending
