      take for example, the straits times... why does it put the zodiac signs predictions in its newspaper...

       

      one of straits times principle would be to report truth .however, it is also known that many people. at least a substantial amount, like to read the zodiac predictions. Therefore, there is a clash of interest between selling papers vs reporting truth.

       

      Zodiax predictions are just that, nonsense and falsehoodness. However, in the face of economics, media press often have to relax their principles and cut corner to achieve profits.
