Keep eye on Ball

Watch the video, the interesting bit starts from 1:20 :

To paraphrase crudely:

“Kenya’s Ball landed in bunker. Big trouble. Lots of problems getting Ball out of hazard/bunker. Me and the Prez used the right club to thrash the ball out of the bunker”

Nothing sexier than watching 2 macho men in suits talk about playing with balls, using right-sized clubs, action-reaction on balls, golf etc.

Note: my balls hurt. Care to recommend a good ball doctor?

Is this normal ?

I don’t mean touring the capital’s biggest slum in a $50,000 4×4, and a flashy suit.

I am talking about the style of reporting, why is it so bad?

The photograph above talks about a prime-ministerial peace tour of Kibera. Yet the primary subject of both the pictures is a Land Cruiser 4×4. Maybe for the next elections the various parties should propose automobile marques as candidates : Hummer for President!! Mercedes Benz for Prime Minister!! BMW for Vice President …and so on.

Also in the same paper, the “letters to the editor” section usually occupies a whole page, which strikes me as odd, given that there is always a letter praising the editorial standards of the newspaper.
