Scaremongering

[Hans Tucker (Hans)]

Anyone catch the promo ad for Sunday Night (SN) tonight..in particular the story about an Asteroid passing close to the Earth. The way they have advertised the story is scaremongering...using words like 'The Asteroid is hurtling towards the Earth.' and titles like 'Collision Course'.

What do you expect from the media.

[Hans Tucker (Hans)]

Well they could tone down the rhetoric...some parts of their story were actually interesting but were over shadowed by the graphics and the what if's.

She (the presenter) was quite cute

You honestly can't expect the media to do anything right, unless it is SBS or ABC maybe

The even cut what the guy from nasa said to make it look like this asteroid was 100% going to hit the earth
