    We are living in alarmist media era .

    Watching tennis on Channel Nine last night and a "Nine News - ALERT" came up with the word ALERT highlighted in RED. It turned out to be nothing more than a news "Update" .

    The word alert suggests impending danger or similar , and it was nothing of the sort ! No child abduction , tsunami warning or threat of world war ........nothing , but the humdrum regurgitation of the 6pm news .

    Obviously they have not been told the story of the boy who called wolf ?
