We rely on news to learn about what is happening in the world around us. That's to say: News (matter)! But we usually find reports on the same events contain different even contradictory information. Why?
Let's take the two news reports on the Henderson Tower fire as an example. The first news report, which focuses on firefighters' efforts to put out the fire, tells us the fire spread quickly and left people (trap). And the firefighters got the fire control. However, the second news report attaches importance to deaths and (injury). The fire has left dozens of people hurt, five of are in a critical condition. From the examples above, we know it is (advise) to remember journalists may have different priorities. They may contradict each other in terms of factual details, as events in the real world are usually complicated and constantly (change). In addition, news reports written at different stages of an event could contain different information as news facts (bring) to light.
To sum up, it's smart to read news reports written from various perspectives, which brings us accurate understanding of a situation!
