Hi all,
Please contribute any articles you have read or written to the
Singapore Media Watch:
http://www.mediawatchsg.blogspot.com
Through this blog, we hope to achieve the following:
1. To increase the political awareness of ordinary
Singaporeans.
2. To scrutinize and analyze articles in the local papers on issues
and policies concerning
Singapore.
3. To provide alternative viewpoints to balance the pro-government
stance of the state media and to publish letters rejected by the
mainstream media forum page.
4. To expose Singaporeans to foreign publications whose reports are
often radically different from the local papers.
5. To serve as an active catalyst for media reform in the
future.
Unlike other blogs which comment on local politics, this blog will
focus on articles published in the local papers instead, further
dissecting and analyzing them and debunk any factual errors,
assumptions or prejudices inherent in them.
Please feel free to contribute your thoughts, views and opinions on
any articles you read in our local papers. This small endeavor will
only take off with the collective efforts of everybody. It's time
to do something to contribute positively to the growth and
development of a REAL civil society in Singapore!
