I came across this quote after flipping thru today’s ST and MediaCorp’s freesheet. Could explain many things abt our society?
“The smarter the journalists are, the better off society is. For to a degree, people read the press to inform themselves, and the better the teacher, the better the student body.”
- Warren E. Buffett
It doesn’t help that the principal prizes obedience rather than ability/intelligence in his teachers.
Agree. If you found this quote on SPH publication, that means they have just slapped themselves in the face hahaha….
A. Lincoln said something like all the people cannot be fooled all the time. By that measure SPH journalists have done a great job for their masters – more than 60% of the student body have been disinformed all the time.
The really smarter ones are pragmatic and have left as they would be doing themselves in if they sincerely tried bettering the student body and society.
