Need to bring a chance in this collapsing society!!!

The media approach towards the society is pathetic. The problems we face being a part of this society is unique and quite different. We have extremely over population with each one having their unique entity. Our problems are the same but the way to tackle them has changed, even the arguments’ around them have multiplied. Multiplicity of debates may not be seen as progress. The fact is that we are slowly turning into a bandwagon where the large part of wheel is in a good condition and on the other side it has been rusted. The same is the condition with our society. Instead of solving problems we have such great people like our politicians who instead of solving the problems simply argument over them. And then the arguments are carried on with the media. We need to understand that our society consists of rich and middle class people. The rich class people spend their penny over fooding, cosmetics, brands etc. Whereas on the other side we have our farmers who are committing suicide in depression. Media only covers story which profits there channel. And now media has become the almighty who decides the fate of the people. Media was not in this way few years ago. Media is paid for the news, as in the case of scams or rapes they have been paid so that they do not publish the news and then slowly and gradually the case has been hidden.

Even newspapers especially Mumbai Mirror covers 70% of the paper with advertisements instead of news which are of utmost importance. Newspapers have heavy political bias in India. We will hardly find the media who are unbiased. We read excessive news of cricket which extends far beyond the sports section. Other sports are simply not encouraged. We are served with meaningless film gossip and useless news about celebrities, which shows how much the PR agencies of these stars are paying the media. Newspapers today have turned into fashion magazines and have taken us far away
from real issues.

The growth of media has lowered the cost of perfection, ethics of journalism and honour. Media leads to inaccuracies and mistakes. Even choice of what news to cover and what to ignore. In college we were thought that in journalism the basic points which we need to remember is accuracy, rechecking, etc. But in real world the media makes such mistakes. There are serious concerns about the trivialisation of content and increasing concentration of media ownership in large corporate
groups. There is the nonstop breaking news culture. Many politicians, paying newspapers and news channels for positive coverage. Knowledge is strength. And the media is a way to get knowledge. But is this really possible with biased media? So we have to work hard here. Start asking questions. Start spreading knowledge you have.
This is how we can start for the change...Hope for the best.. !
