Yellow journalism ' the word brings a lot of irritation and discomfort.

i found myself telling to my mother that pls don't believe all what u read in newspaper and u watch in news channel.
they r majorly fake and extremely tempted to the viewers.

all they want that reader sud ask the vendor i heard abt that news in which newspaper it is ?
and the vendor sud provide their newspaper to their customers.

for that they can say that Amir khan has one son abroad abt whom we don't know.
it may be Ashwariya's past affairs. even after she is happily married for 2 years now.

they r really getting on our nerves.

what u all think ?

Firstly one must realize that nothing is as big as money for people today. People can do anything for it. Infact we all slog for it 😆. Coming to a product and its publicity, the foremost aim of it would be to ATTRACT consumers and nothing else. As long as the publicity is caught hold by a persons eye, nobody cares if the product is true or fake. And thats the very elemetary strategy people use for ads. To get a persons attention, they adopt exaggerations of news events, scandals, sensatinal stuff etc.

Exactly. Generally nobody cares for ethics as long as you are doing well !! But there are some major exceptions too.

Yellow also stands for communism where the people were fed with falsified information.
But these days countries following democracy are going wild and causing Financial collapses.
