What are the solutions to the negative influences of the media?

In: Television and Video, Cheating, Algebra [Edit categories]

Answer:

The only solution to stopping negative influences of the media is to either be wise enough to believe half of what you hear or ignore the media altogether. It is true that the media dwells mainly on the bad news (bad news travels fast) and little about all the good things people do in this world. It is because a high percentage of the public demand details and are interested in the blood and guts of a story with all the details in tack. Years ago newspapers were only interested in the truth, but throughout the years they seek sensationalism to stay on top and now it hits the TV and Internet. Some important issues regarding gossip in politics; worldly events, etc., are often muzzled by the powerful and the newspapers and other forms of media can only print what is demanded by one or more people in power. The integrity of the media has lowered itself to serve those with power to stop the truth in some cases and add to the frenzy of propaganda in many areas of world events.
