Bluetoothers fed up with how some people does misuse and overuse the “Breaking News” headline. Yuh switch on de TV and yuh see, “Breaking News”. Yuh stay tuned thinking that Uncle Freddie in a second miasmic encounter or that de Son of Robe cut down de Works Ministry signboard sehing it deh pun guvment reserve.
Nothing of de sort! Yuh see a DJ stressing yuh out screaming, “Bob Marley new CDs on sale. $200 each! Hurry to a high-decibel cart passing near you!! Is more stress when yuh remember that de great Uncle Bob dead thirty years ago! Is de same way some in de real media bruking up de “Breaking News” thing.
Everybody know that de coast is below de level of de Atlantic. Dem know that de City drainage system design by de Colonial masters, can only tek off lil bit rainfall. Dem know that de garbage ending up in de drain since Hammie not picking it up and that he not clearing de drains. Dem also know that some people does throw dem garbage in de drains and canals to.
Knowing all o’ this, yet yuh see “Breaking News” pun de front page o’ de Waterfalls and Big Market papers and de Opposition TV News cast that de City flood. It ain’t must flood! It flooding donkey decades now. Is hurricane season and de rain heavy. China and Brazil flood out with millions displace and hundreds dead! We not at that stage and ain’t gon reach deh. In plenty other countries flooding is normal. Only here is “Breaking News”.
