I just realized for some reason I hardly read newspaper these days and I feel really out-of-date. I have not had so much time, thus some little free time has been dedicated to some more fun activities.
When I was younger, I usually read through the Entertainment section first, then the front page and continued some issues which I found interesting, they were of course soft news and criminal issue, yes pretty useless!
All those rubbish were wiped out when I enrolled a university. I majored in Journalism so I have been strongly influenced on always catching up the move of the country as well as the world in particular political topics.
I quit reading those rags and started reading some good-quality daily which offered useful news and events. Most of the newspapers in Thailand are ‘Quantity’ newspaper, they only aim at the number of readers by publishing a large amount of nonsense news such as crime or superstition and of course it works! These newspapers are in top rank of best selling.
Anyway, there’s no use complaining as I have no time for neither ‘Quality’ nor ‘Quantity’ papers.
