I am sure that you have heard of the old saying “Truth is stranger than fiction.” As you know the news media and the entertainment industry like to report news stories of friction between the police and citizens in their community to draw viewers to tune in to the news channels to get their ratings to appease their sponsors.
On Easter Sunday in Newport News a young man named Jeremiah whose last name was not released at the request of his mom invited Newport News Virginia Police Officer Beganovic and his partner whose identity was not released to come inside their home to share dinner with the mom and her son as a way of thanking them for their outstanding work of keeping them safe and sound.
Officer Beganovic was so impressed with the kind act that was given to them by Jeremiah and his mom so much that Officer Beganovic went to Jeremiah’s school the next day to give the students at the school to give them free meals to show them that the local police officers care for their community.
Just remember this fact. Television shows and movies that show the dark side of life are your entertainment and nothing else.
This really makes a difference for the community. This is wonderful
It is to see police officers and the people they serve find harmony in their city.
That is true since ratings mean more these days than giving the viewer great positive stories.
Thank you for spreading the joy and happiness!
My pleasure to share these kinds of great news stories.
That is some news we could use . I hate reading negative news.
It bothers me to see negative news stories on television myself.
your feel good first responder stories always make my day!!!
My pleasure to share these great stories that usually wind up in the back page of the national news telecasts.
They really do don’t they.
It is a shame that the good news stories are buried in the last segment.
I would say it is the news agencies, but that isn’t fair. It is the combination of ratings (advertisers) and attention span (viewers) combined then with stations (management) resulting in a bad mix.
