#WeeklyTask : Week 5 - News and You (episode 2)

Who owns the newspapers and TV stations in your country? Do you think this has an effect on the news that you hear?
Who owns ?
The answer is vividly known by all of us. Simply and solely, our dearest government controls the media - printed media, digital media, online media, broadcasting, pretty much all of the media are controlled by them.
Putrajaya, The Administrative Centre Of Malaysia. 

Since the government is controlling the media, news especially, it does surely affect on the news that the citizen listen to. Some of them might be probably wrong, some of them can be consider true. The truth to be known.. only the government know. They are doing this is to prevent any situations that could worsen the situation in our country, or just using the media as their propaganda machine. (media is surely the best tool for the propaganda)
