"电视新闻做得非常好的一项功能就是当没有新闻时我们会像有新闻一样给你同样的强调"
— David Brinkley
Simplified Meaning:
TV news often tries to make even unimportant stories sound very important. This means that when there isn't much happening, they still present the small events as big news. For example, imagine a news channel talks about a celebrity's outfit as if it's as crucial as a major earthquake. They do this so viewers keep watching, even when there's nothing significant to report. It's like a magician making a simple trick seem amazing, just to hold the audience's attention. So, when watching the news, it's good to think about whether the event is genuinely important or just made to look that way. Understanding this can help people stay focused on what truly matters in the world.
