Swine flu

Swine Flu a major crises everyone is talking about. Is it really something to freak out about? Its the topic that the media was covering for most of their broadcasting. So what is this dilemma coming to?

The Media made this crises sound like our world was going to end. My friend from Milwaukee said he had gotten the swine flu. He was cured by not doing anything different than any other flu. This really got me thinking on why the media broadcasts it as such a big deal.

Why does the media over exaggerate things? I could understand if this flu was deadly, but it really was not that harmful towards adults, maybe kids? They really should broadcast the right information on T.V. so people have a better understanding on how to approach this matter.

Swine flu, is it really what the media is broadcasting. Or is it just another flu bug going around. I think the media blows this dilemma out of control, because it keeps people tuned in on their broadcasting. Which makes them money, if they have more people listening to their station.
