Journalism, or not?

It is completely logical that, a news paper reader want to see the visual news. Think of a television news, which a reporter only tells you what happend and you see nothing. That won't be sufficent. But the media may be using this for their own benefits. It changes according to our point of view. We can think that they are showing the people what the world really is and what is really happening or we can also think they are abusing the situation to win just a tropy. Taking the photograph of a girl which is going to die in a few hours is ethical or not? Maybe i can't answer that question, but i think, actually i hope, the reporter must have been thought once more time before he takes this photo.

Reality TV

The search for some different TV shows in 1940s is ended by the new idea of Reality shows. The main aim was affecting the audience by decreasing the rate of acting and replacing it with real lives or stories. Nowadays, these reality shows are exceeding their aims and actually being way further than reality. Many people are criticising these reality shows roughly and they are completely against them. But sadly too many people are watching these shows, and this audience includes also the people who are criticising these shows. The ironic part is that the producers are preparing these shows according to the audience.
