නොමඟ යවන සුළු වාර්තාකරණයක්?
Abstract
On July 20, 2023, an article on the Colombo Times website published a headline claiming that Australian scientists had discovered a world with a developed civilization. However, the article's content clarified that the scientists were merely hypothesizing about the possibility of such a civilization. In contrast, CNN accurately reported that the scientists had only detected an unidentified object emitting radio wave pulses. This comparison suggests that the Colombo Times used a sensational/manipulated headline to attract readers, while CNN adhered to a more factual and precise reporting of the news.
