If we go a little back in time and see the world, it looked more like what we see today. Albeit a little more better to live in. Journalistic works and cross border reports, usually one sided propaganda, swarming the AM and FM radio frequencies are increasing in numbers. In recent times, this trend is going to the newer technology that enabled transmitting information cheap, reliable, swift and unchecked.
