The Media is Nothing But A Favoritism Game!!

The media in newspapers and television news and even internet news is nothing but a favoritism game simply because all they the reporters ever write or report about is what they think would be popular at the time. What some people consider popular in this world are the things no one really knows about. For instance, I, as well as several people I acquaint myself with like indie films. I love how they are low budget and they feel laid back, and the writing is actually better than any expensive production they have out there nowadays. When you look at sports, all the reporters ever put in the news are events about big payroll teams like the Yankees, Red Sox, Patriots, and even the Steelers. No one writes or reports about the small market teams, and to me that is unfair because they play the same game, they have some really talented players that deserve recognition of some kind, and they work hard just like anyone else in their profession does, and some of them even deserve the same hefty contracts that the popular players get, but since it is a favoritism game they won't get that money. Such an unfortunate state of affairs if you think about it. It makes me sad sometimes because I think about it and wonder what if a lot about some players getting the same salaries as the big timers do. If that would happen, the sport would be better because the good guys would win in the end and get their fair due, but seeing as how the world does not work like that, life goes on and we continue doing what we do every single day. It kind of makes you think though, if things were different would we even like it, and what I have to say to that is, Yes!! We would definitely love it because the small timers like us who like the small time things and are a big fan of the unknowns would love to get the attention we deserve. I think the world better shape up and take notice of what they are missing out on. Loosen up world! Understand what you are missing out on and get with it. Would the world be better off? You bet your arse it would!!
