I’ve learned some new things via your web site. One other thing I’d like to say is newer laptop operating systems usually allow much more memory to be utilized, but they likewise demand more memory space simply to work. If one’s computer can’t handle extra memory plus the newest application requires that memory increase, it usually is the time to shop for a new Personal computer. Thanks

Sexism is rife in the media industry worldwide. You just have to be perceptive and discern them, especially the less obvious ones.

I know, ‘cos I’ve been tricked before, and I’m a woman.

Yes Wilfrid, you are right on that point. But the headline does not say that three women have been charged. The point of the story is mainly to highlight that an arrest has been made, and what I do not understand is why were the women singled out in the headline regarding the arrest. In fact, if you read the story from The Star, in the third paragraph, the police officer was quoted as saying all 22 people were arrested. Now, that’s the accurate piece of information that should have made the headline for any ethical newspaper.

In short, I still am disappointed at the editorial standards of these two papers.

Based on that little article, it is said that the 3 women were detained under the investigation of Section 372B of the Penal Code. It is not mentioned if the men would be charged. And in as such, I think it is correct to highlight the guilty party.

My point is, it is the Penal Code that should be frown upon, not the headline.

My 5 cents.
