The media, in itself, have great power in the formation of opinions...
Them media of communication, in the world current, has much relevance, since are in a world globalized, where all have the opportunity, of find us, of them news or events of the moment, is to through, of the newspaper, the radio, the Internet, and absolutely all that type of information, it can have in our phones or computers, is very difficult, that is hide the information.
Now, that does not mean that the information can not be hidden, by Governments or Companies; the amount of information that can handle a single person in today's world is infinite, media like youtube, facebook, twitter, among others, help people, apart from communicate among themselves, to communicate any event or situation, this happening in the street, which, also, makes each individual one informational means towards others.
Traditional media still have the same power, both to inform, and manipulate people with the information they give, therefore, for many factors of power, it is essential to control the media, often leading to stifle the freedom of expression of persons or groups of persons; and is serious that in our follow happening this type of things.
Media, in the majority of cases do not assume responsibility for the news, being them opinion makers, massively, and power over people who have very large, many dictatorships in the world have been effective, with control of the media, where do see that everything is fine, when it is not so , and not only Governments, if not, multinational companies, who use the media for their benefit, their own personal benefit, leaving aside the people, and using people as pawns, in their marketing strategies.
Us them citizens, that not have the power, that they possess, must fight, because our voices are heard, for do see our claims, that them media of communication, reflect the realities of our different countries, without censorship any, and that them people, that are them real protagonists, deserve the respect that is deserve, us are what really can change the world.
Hopefully, some day, the media will realize the responsibility that they have at the time provide information, and that at some point, they do not stop to be manipulated by the power of money, perhaps the media are an instrument for the people, or are a tool of the powerful, who are the minority.
That good that there is a place for express me, as steemit, where can tell what feel and what think, because the greater aspiration, that one can have, is that seas heard, while someone can be in against, of what one can tell, there this the real freedom of expression.
Follow me: @luisucv34
The whole POINT of the news media is to form and control public opinion.
If, by chance, they actually inform people, well that's just gravy.
Completely in accordance with your comment, exactly is what I think
It's sad how the media easily influences the people, even they speak mostly lies. The government does their part well.
So, we can say that they use their power in bad way
If we see it on mainstream media they want us to see it.
The media failed
