media reality

From the available media, every week around 10 news are selected by me and presented in this blog.

It isn't all about what's going on in the would, is also about how the media present to us what they have found in this same would.

So every week, here, in this virtual piece,
amounts of images and texts selected,
presented by the media,
caught by a reporter somewhere in a reality,
hoping to be able to show a piece from that reality.
