Don’t read the good news, waste time!

One time, there was criticism about the GNFI content style. GNFI content is considered only just public information, normative, and it is impossible to move change. What is expected from good news that is just like that?

For urgent issues to immediately make changes, the GNFI style cannot be expected to be able to deliver the expected acceleration. Call it about environmental damage, climate change, energy transition, to corruption.

Issues like this do not need good news, because the reality is not so. The public does not need to be entertained with inspiration, but a sign of danger that immediately nudged with the threat to its survival.

The spread of positive news for issues like this is not only ineffective, but to waste time and resources.

“All that must be done is Afraid of dryingspread of fear. Fear will move people to change. This must be done by the media, “said the critic.

To be honest, I was very happy with criticism like this. Of course “Make You”. Who is not so when his work is considered not very useful.

But I believe criticism is useful. As we believe so far: Every idea must be tested. Similarly, the ideas carried by GNFI who carried – as the name implies – I’m well.

It is not a unidirectional wind that makes the aircraft fly, but the opposite. Then criticism actually helps us organize the way of thinking and work.

How to gnfi

Basically, what we do at GNFI is not a bad statement. We see from the other side, raising inspiration.

When talking about the climate crisis, for example, we chose not to see only the dangers (which are clearly scary), but tell efforts to overcome them, which often come from most people

There are many ordinary people but persistent to make improvements with whatever they can. Impressed simple and trivial. But that’s why their steps should be imitated by many other people easily.

We believe that this is actually a large number, as many problems are still around us and are urgent to be overcome.

There are always those who move even though they do not exist on social media. In the fields of education, health, social, anti -corruption, environment, and others. We need more people like them.

Is the inspiration and “good news” approach is good? Of course, according to GNFI. Is another bad way? Don’t think so much.

People various kinds, how to approach them too. Some are just moving when they feel scared. There are also those who are moved because of inspiration from concrete examples.

Like tastes in the type of content, some like to read, see pictures, or watch videos. Mostly, we need to combine all ways so that change can actually occur.

The community also consumes information from various sources, not from one. So, no need to worry when there is a media that chooses an approach I’m well and others with Bad news. In our opinion, this actually enriching references.

We don’t need a uniform, but diverse way. Just imagine if the media all use the approach Afraid of drying. Seeing wherever we meet fear. Or because of the spirit of conveying in a good news style, all of them wrap the story with a positive approach, as if there is no danger whatsoever needs to be worried.

Do you want the condition to be like that? If we don’t. Because as long as the information is presented with the principle of good journalism, we don’t need to worry about style I’m well or Bad news.
