Write what should be!

Since the minaret vote, we have known that political polls have nothing to do with reality. The fact that the media can be just as wrong was clearly demonstrated by Donald Trump's election victory. First and foremost, the global newspaper "New York Times", which predicted Trump's defeat with absolute certainty.
This year, during the election campaign, I was in the chocolate town of Hershey, Pennsylvania, and attended a Trump rally. To my surprise, there were a lot of women and young people indonesia rcs data there; not the monsters that everyone describes.
The same phenomenon happened in 2009 at President Obama's inauguration in Washington. I was standing in front of the Capitol, it was bitterly cold and there were lots of black people, all exceptionally well dressed. It was their holiday. When I gave a radio interview on my cell phone and told them this, a listener of the station called me afterwards and called me a "racist". On CNN you only see white people and a few black people. I pinched my arm, turned my head and still saw thousands of well-dressed black people. But most journalists didn't realize this because they were concentrating on CNN, which showed almost only white dignitaries.
"Write what is," preached "Spiegel" founder Rudolf Augstein. But "Write how it should be" is increasingly becoming the motto of the world press. From this perspective, the election of Trump is a salutary shock. Despite ultra-modern newsrooms, sometimes a picture on location is advisable. For example, in Hershey, Pennsylvania. Or in the bitter cold in front of the Capitol.
