‘ this s-pop news is not ok ’ please note that these are all my opinions, and to not harass any mentioned scratcher in any way. Basically, there has been this k-pop news scratcher who has made many popular projects with other 100 views. Today, i’m gonna be talking about my problems with them, but also what their side may be like. So, let’s start things off with WHAT KIND OF NEWS DO THEY MAKE? This scratcher, let’s call them Sophia (random name). So sophia makes news articles about trending kpop topics, such as news about idols, dating rumours and many other things related to the kpop industry. Moving on… Problem 1 — Being rude A lot of news scratchers are quite rude, so this isn’t a huge surprise but i feel like this is still important to mention. In one of their projects they mentioned that someone was overrated, not their way of singing, not their dancing, no. A human being was ‘overrated’. I feel like the problem is that she wasn’t precise, so saying that someone is overrated can come across as really rude. They also mentioned that they didn’t like someone for going viral for their body (disclaimer, they didn’t go viral for their body.) and generally sounding rude because of them not being precise. (a bit like the overrated person thing) Problem 2 — is it really netizens opinion? This person (most of the time) mentions that this is why people don’t like this person, think a certain thing etc… but sophia always says that it’s her opinion… she literally says at the end of the project that it is her opinion, and also during their explanation. They also make it sound like it is their opinion so she’s clearly not just stating netizens opinions. Although this is a small detail, i think this is important to mention whether it’s your opinion or not. ‘it's not biased, its from the view of why people think this is’ - sophia Problem 3 — only they can have an opinion Now, i don’t think that sophia thinks this but rather her fans do. In her projects, she states her opinions, that’s fine. But when people who don’t agree comment something, there is always one reply that says that ‘sophia can have her own opinions’ which is true BUT if she has the right to have an opinion, the viewers should as well ‘so the people making the project can state their opinion but comments cant?’ — quoted by someone in comments. Problem 4—rude replies now, this scratcher hasn’t done that many rude replies but i feel like i do have to mention them. examples; ‘are you silly sis i never said i hated her stop putting words in my mouth and get off of my page forever’ ‘ [insert idol name] is problematic.problematic: constituting or presenting a problem or difficulty. she's caused controversies making her problematic. ’ ‘will you just stop??? [insert idol name] IS problematic’ Now that i have talked about bad things that she has done, let me look at her perspective on things 1 — Improved content Her content has now improved because of the fact that she doesn’t directly address why she doesn’t like a specific person, she know does more… less dramatic drama? i’m not sure how to explain it but she doesn’t direct it to one person, more to a community. Her most recent one is about how tweens shouldn’t go to sephora, which i think is a lot better than her saying [insert idol] is problematic. 2 — Again, just her opinion Sophia always mentions that what she is saying is her opinion. Again, i’m totally fine with having your own opinion. It’s your opinion. No one has to agree with you, which i totally understand as a news scratcher. so yeah, that’s about it. i don’t want you to harass this person in any way, because of the fact that they have been improving their content. Their user is if you want to take a look at her newer projs.
