awake or still dreaming?

This is how the 146-ranked Straits Times reported the organ-robbing news:

"Feb 8, 2007
By Tracy Sua
...Nine police officers and about 10 hospital security staff members were involved in the three-hour confrontation before the matter was resolved peacefully and doctors performed the operation...".



That's a blatant lie. Contrast it with Lianhe Zaobao's reporting, which clearly described how the 3-hour confrontation occured only after the operation was forcibly carried out.

This difference is very great. The Straits Times wanted you to believe this: First, confrontation occurred. Then family cooled down after 3 hours, then family agreed to the operation, then the operation was performed peacefully.

No so! This was what happened: First, family was tricked to leave ward, then patient was wheeled away, then family members saw and cried and wanted to rush in, but were physically blocked by police, then the family was so outraged that they confronted the police for the next 3 hours *AFTER* the operation was forcibly carried out.

In fact, the good LianHe Zaobao report included the time:

9:30pm
- police tricked family to go out of the ward.
- Organs forcibly robbed.
- Family tried to rush in but blocked physically by police.
- Sister bit hand of police.
- Sister cuffed and imprisoned for 30 minutes.

3 hours confrontation started.

4:00am
- family cooled down and claimed the body.



So you see? The Straits Times painted a rosy pro-government picture where though there was some initial confrontation, all was well and good by the time the operation took place. The truth is that the operation was more "like a robbery" (according to the victim's sister), the injustice so great that the family staged a 3-hour confrontation after being robbed of their son/brother. And that's a very hugh difference!

So you tell me, what kind of shit newspaper is this Straits Times? It cannot be trusted at all! If not this human battery is effectively billingual, he would have been fooled by this blue pill of a shitty time. Not only is the reporting a lie, it covered up many embarrassing details too:

Family knelt and pleaded? Censored and replaced with vague erroneous term: "confrontation"!

Family tricked to leave ward? Censored!!

Sister bit hand of police? Distorted to become "aunt tried to bite"!!!

Police handcuffed and imprisoned sister? Censored!!!!

Sister described the incident as "robbery"? Censored!!!!!

No wonder Straits Times is ranked 146th. Shame on you, Tracy Sua! You are a lousy reporter with no ethics! You censor and lie, to please your Matrix Master. Oh, and you substituted an imprisoned sister (whose name and age (32yrs old) Zaobao reported and interviewed) with an aunt and censor the imprisonment! All these make you an accomplice in this sorry organ-robbing saga.

Neo: You ever have that feeling where you're not sure if you're awake or still dreaming?
Choi: All the time. It's called mescaline, it's the only way to fly.

Tracy Sua would be lying if she wrote:
"...three-hour confrontation before the matter was resolved peacefully and before doctors performed the operation...".

But she left out the 2nd "before" in bold, and so it becomes:
"...three-hour confrontation before the matter was resolved peacefully and (on an unrelated note) doctors performed the operation (forcibly and thereafter, the confrontation started)"

The words in parenthesis being the hidden truth that she hid from us. See how cunning she is? She technically did not lie, yet she lied in all practical sense.

Booooo, tracy sua!
