International news
These international news agencies report their
news on news wires. It is up to the individual news agency reporter
in charge of listing international events that can impact the
international community to pick up and to report in their country,
breaking news from another country. International news is reported
on television usually during world news reporting in the United
States from such sources as CBS, NBC, ABC and cable news sources
like CNN. It is not surprising that all of these news agencies in
the United States report on the same breaking international
news.
Because they all get their world news from press releases sent out
by individual international news agencies. What is of interest
though is that all of these United States news agencies report
breaking news in Turkey as being Europe when Turkey has yet to be
accepted as part of the European Union. The only significant part
of that observation is for the enlightenment of the sophisticated
news follower to be aware of
online games and the fact that news agencies report
on press releases but are not necessarily keen on total accuracy.
Their motive is to report the same press release, the fastest, to
get their news agency the most viewers. For example, where would
CNN find out about a mine explosion in China? When you look at
their world coverage, you might be lulled into believing that CNN
has a reporter in China actually reporting. Due to the marvel of
Internet world news coverage from say CNN we learn that the story
about the mine explosion comes from a Chinese new agency Xinhua
news agency. How accurate are they? Probably about as accurate as
WKBN reporting local news on the radio in Ohio.
