Oh your clever news shortly addressing g fake news !
What's the truth wi t him the lie
Could we see it if we try?
Pundits whine and yak yak yak
I want Walter Cronkite back!

Well said! So much for what passes for "truth" and "fact" have been so altered by special interests in the media that it's almost unrecognizable. Who is brave enough to set Truth free?

This is a well-written 5-7-5 poem! I like the picture you chose to display, it matches perfectly with the words that are conveyed. The message is clearly said and true with the last line saying "media scrum". The actual truth is always being hidden under lies. Great work :)

I admired your message and your "hostage" analogy. Such a weighty subject and so well articulated in this tiny form. Best wishes in the 5-7-5 competition- Joan

Hello zanya
I like the idea of you using the graphic
of how the imagining glass can see what there are at times the lies hidden what we believe it's the Truth
Best to you in the 5-7-5 contest.

I believe you're right, zanya. The truth lies in the looking for it.
If we only believe what we're told, we let others interpret for us.
We need to seek our own truths; come to our own conclusions.

Best of luck with the voters.

Peace, Lee

A good 5,7,5 on how the media only reports an twists the truth as they see it. Nicely done, good luck on this and have a great day.

Outstanding picture selection that accompanied the well written poem that I think will do real good in the contest. The reader enjoyed the read.
