Today I read about the Berlin wall anniversary in different newspapers: the guardian, the New York Times and the Brisbane times.
My idea was read the same "piece of news" and later describe how this newspapers according to their own points of view, see the situation but in different ways.
First of all, the guardian.co.uk saw the commemoration of the Berlin wall fall in a short and clear ways, no so narrative as the New York Times did. Because this newspapers tell us about this "party of freedom" in a very emotive way and always remembering the participation of the united states in the things that happened in 1989 in Berlin, Germany. On the other hand the Brisbane times did a well edited piece of news with a lot of emotive content too in the same way as the New York Times. According to this news there was a little detail, maybe not so little, that catch my attention and it was the fact that all the European and American news papers are “designed” in a good, fun and clear narrative way. When you read them is not like just reading a piece of news... is like read a tale of what is happening now! I thought that this situation in Chile isn't the same due to the fact that all the newspapers write about our issues in a cold and boring way. I would like to see “a guardian" for this country which is written in a close and friendly ways for the readers.
about the story:
yesterday Germany celebrated the fall of the Berlin Wall 20 years ago in 1989 and all Europe remember how the whole world saw the end of the cold war, the fall of soviet union and the reunification of Germany divided until 1989 in two blocs which represented the two main forces in the political scenario in those years ; the communist party and the capitalist one.
For this special celebration, there were prepared thousand of dominoes dividing which in those years the Berlin wall was dividing. at a certain moment this dominoes stated to fall while all people and the Germany’s chancellor, Angela Merkel, shouted the name of Mikhail Gorbachev who was on the main and the fireworks shined in the sky
