The earliest tabloids were advertising with a little topical scandal to keep the attention and to distinguish yesterday's advertising from today's. The Times of London had advertising only, no news, on the front page until the 1960s. The newspapers exist to depress and alarm their readers, with the adverts promising relief in a shiny new object if not some sugar laden elixir. Rolling news magnifies to the nth degree and I think you overestimate that as much as half of it is believable.

I deeply thank you for your translation work on YouTube.

Though my ability to understand English is very poor, I can get a general view of some movies.

I introduced some of them in my web site or facebook.
