Whenever a crime occurs, the news broadcasts an interview about the suspect to the neighbors.

I would never respond to this interview and have told my family not to do it.

We don't know how the images will be used afterward.

If a negative comment is made about a suspect and the case is "retried 20 years later, and the defendant is falsely convicted," - viewers will remember the interviewee as "the person who provoked the false conviction.

Lately, there seem to be many reports of serious crimes committed by people considered 'good people' in the neighborhood -- this is an example of arbitrary reporting (biased reporting).

Why 'biased reporting'?

"Because it is by far more interesting to make it a violent crime committed by a polite, quiet, inconspicuous person in your neighborhood."

The more interesting it is, the more ratings it will earn.

Hence, it is 'biased reporting.

Me: "What would my neighbors say in an interview if I committed a murder?"

Wife: "'I knew it...', 'I knew he was going to do it someday,' 'He never greeted me and had a bad eye,' 'He was always a troublemaker in the neighborhood association'..."

Me: "Enough."
