Hilarious *Laughs*

Ok I stole this one from my gal friend's blog...it's hilarious *laughs* I am trying to get the full copy :P

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Topic:
The media wields more power than the law.

Juz the kinda proposition that would get anybody from the legal world all fired up. As would for all from the planet of media I would suppose..

Debaters:
Legal Team:
Chelva Rajah SC, Philip Jeyaretnam SC, Adrian Tan, Jason Chan
Media Team:
Kumar (no intro necessary), Sadasivan(Chairman of Right Angle Group - whatever that is), Joe Augustin(Power 98 DJ), Philip Lee (New Paper journalist)

A hint of what went on that fateful day...

Description of Kumar: 'Kumar sashayed onstage in fetchingly tight jeans, a sexy tank-top, a sleek ponytail, perfectly made-up eyes and a certain je ne sais quoi that proved that it takes more than just the right clothes to make an entrance.

You can imagine it already right? *chuckle*


Philip Lee:
Look at our media side, we are the embodiment of diversity, and diversity always wields power. Over there (gesturing to the law ppl) - homogeneity. A lot of inbreeding. And inbreeding, leads to imbecility... The law is impotent!


Adrian Tan:
He says that the law is impotent, the media is potent, and the face of media is.... Kumar??


*LOL*

Joe Augustine:
As a father of 4 children, I can assure you that impotence is not an issue... The media is very, very powerful. So powerful that laws are in place to control it.


Jason Chan:
How do you know what power is? When you were young and did something wrong, didn't you mother tell you, 'stop running around, or else Police catch, then you go jail'? Since when did your mother ever tell you that if you don't stop, Viswa (Sadasivan) will come and make a 30-min presentation about you on Arts Central?


*Rolling on the floor in laughter*

Jeyaretnam:
The media is just ready to do whatever it's told. *Ouch!!* *chuckle* Sometimes it is a sword to decimate opponents, or it is a shield to protect.. But it is not ever, itself, a source of power. It is wielded but does not wield.


And the ping pong game continues...

Ultimately, after a what I believe must have been a very tough decision, Media won, judges split 2-1. Although Jeyaretnam took home the Best Speaker Prize for his 'display of classy wit and undeniable substance'.

When I get the full copy I will paste it here kekeke..I will soon show the evolvement of a dancer soon :P
