A while ago I saw a newspaper cartoon about a man reading his newspaper like a daily routine and being disappointed while the caption read, 'News No News', somewhat like the picture attached herewith
This picture felt highly ironic as why would a newspaper put such an image about their own product, do they also believe they are deviating from the real news. It was a long time ago and I would have forgotten about it hadn't I grown up to realize that in fact the News isn't actually News. It is the same old updates about glamour or tension or things that may only alter the naive minds as per the requirement of those in power. When I say alter the minds, I remember a famous quote from Tyler Durden in the movie Fight Club, "I see in Fight Club the strongest and smartest men who've ever lived. I see all this potential, and I see it squandered. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables – slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need."
As I grew up I realized how much impact that cartoon had on me as when I change news channels, I find that NEWS ISN'T NEWS.
This here is my take on the news that may be 'NO NEWS'. I will focus mainly on Indian news, we get all the ingredients we want right in our home, and if I come across some fascinating international updates, I'll take care of them as well. This serves two purpose, it helps me express and also updates us with what is going on around us.
