Wait, what news?

News comes in many different shapes and forms. What I mean is that news can cover many different subjects. The news that I enjoy the most is sports. I love watching football and love to keep up to date with it. I know most of the teams’ records in the NFL and can tell you who they are playing this weekend. I’m not one who cares what Angelina Jolie and Brad Pit did on their trip to Africa. They most likely adopted a starving Ethiopian child but I don’t really care. I’m trying to live my life and don’t care what back up dancer Britney Spears is screwing or how often Lindsey Lohan is getting drunk at a club. If it’s important to me it would probably show up on the Breaking News cast of any TV station. Remember 9/11, not one channel didn’t say something about it. A lot of the times if something is important to though, many people will talk about it. Usually when something happens people love to discuss it and talk to each other about it. The radio a lot of times will also broadcast information regarding big news as well. Most of the time though, I do find out my news because someone tells me about it. I had no idea about the little boy who was missing after the balloon got away from his parents. I saw a news special about it but could only see the video. I only saw people chasing down a giant silver balloon and seriously thought that it was a space ship hoax that was caught early or something. I guess what I’ve been trying to say is that I really don’t care what’s going on unless it affects me in some way. The news a lot of time is distorted by the media, and because of that I don’t really pay any attention to it unless it’s important enough for everyone to know of it.
