Nowadays media and journalism have a great impact on our life. I believe that the media is doing a great service to us, and whatever negative effect it has is negligible if we compare it to the benefits we get from media. I totally disagree with the statement that media has a negative impact on us.
To begin with, media always keep us up to date with news. We can get every detailed news just within seconds. Moreover, it helps out to raise awareness among people regarding different issues. For instance, during Covid-19 Pandemic media has played a significant role in increasing consciousness related to spread of the diseases. The number of affected people, the number of deaths, the symptoms of the diseases, the remedy everything was presented to us through media. If media wasn’t there to broadcast all this news, it would be very difficult for us to prevent the diseases.
Furthermore, media is a great Contribution in entertainment. The most popular TV shows are enjoyed by us because of this media. For instance, the FIFA World Cup, The Cricket World Cup, which are the most enjoyed TV shows all over the world, and that is possible because the media captures it forside.
However, sometimes publishing wrong news or information by media can mislead a whole nation. To avoid this, journalists should always follow the rules and guidelines of media.
In conclusion, though media has some objection about spreading negativity, its positive contribution certainly outweighs the negative side.With the proper guidelines and enforcement of law.
