Media:Believe it or not

I got the inspiration to write this blog after i watch a news series on a news channel.

That news was related to the breakup of model with her boyfriend.
This sounds really very strange and ridiculous to me after i watched the whole version of what happened. And the media was projecting that news as "NEWS FLASH" in their exclusive section. I wonder so as to like what was exclusive in that news.
Today media has entered into each and every aspect of life and they are continuously showing the nonsense, which should not be broadcast on the screen.
But mind one thing that its not only media, but we all are also responsible for this much interference of media into our personal lives. Sometimes people do this kind of activity just to be in limelight, as that model was doing .She was telling each and everything about her relationship with that guy. Well as per me the best option is to talk with him and resolve the matter but then how she will be in the news and on the page3.
And also government is also not taking any steps to stop these irrelevant things to be shown on the air. There has to be some criteria as to which news is to be shown or which is to be restricted. Because news channel are supposed to be provide us some useful information through which we can learn something or get to know about national and international events happening around the globe. These should be refrain from showing those stuff which serves no purpose other than gossip, well for showing these stuffs we should have a separate channel and in fact we have these types of channels. So every news should be properly scrutinized before being telecasted.

I agree - I think nowadays, the media has become an entertainment machine, rather than a public watchdog. Where are the social commentary? Where is the uncovering of government conspiracies? The media is such a powerful tool but in order to be powerful, they have to ensure that they have the attention of the public... and there has been an uprising of airheads in the public in recent years. I wish people would stop caring so much about mundane things and start looking at the bigger issues but then i realize i do it too! I hate commercial television and television journalism in general...i think it can be an effective format but alot of the time it doesn't portray the depth that print or radio does. But even the newspaper format is getting more magazine like in order to boost sales and advertising revenue. It sucks but that's how it is. THe only way to save yourself from it is to only read media which is not in the mainstream - but there aren't many nowadays which are self funded and unbiased. I think you just have to read alot of different sources in order to get your own opinion, now with the concentration of media ownership threatening press freedom. Or you can join the media and try and change it one story at a time.

@Amy : Whatever you said is 100 %correct, we should focus on reading more, we should read diverse topics to keep ourselves equipped with whats happening around.

Nice thinking!!!!!!!!
