the actor playing the journalist is just fantastic in this

a kid who is all downs and that...quality

@Musicdudez Very true. It's a mix of everybody. It's the people that would rather read the made-up claptrap than the truth, it's the bosses who want the juicy gossip so they can sell, it's the paparazzi who take the pictures and the reporters who then put the pictures completely out of context, it's the whole messed up system. I still stand by my argument that if society and the media wasn't as fucked up as it was the world would be a much better place. I'm not particularly blaming anyone

[Musicdudez]

@Mixedia Honestly, it's not the reporters fault, they're doing what they should do. The one who started with it is the one to blame, after that it just went on.

[Mixedia]

@Musicdudez Oh no I know, people in this world are too shit to tell the truth so it never could happen. But how much more of a better place would Earth be if this was not the case?

@lsdoxie It's only bloody Rufus Jones from Mongrels!

Perfect cast for the journalist. Not just the way he behaves, but the acting aswell

[Musicdudez]

@Mixedia But you cant make all the newspapers become 100% truthful. Everybody needs to do it or no one does. If only one does, that newspaper will lose readers because the titles wont be as exciting.

[Mixedia]

@Musicdudez But if none of the media posted twisted lies like this at all our society might not be as fucked up as it is and the world would be a much better place
