Media and the News -- The Chicken and the Egg Question
[ send me this paper ]
This 10
page report discusses the modern media and the extent to which it
is responsible for making the news or breaking the news.
Increasingly, the line between reporting the news and
participating in the news has become blurred for the modern
media. If the media does not show up to cover a “newsworthy”
event, was it really “newsworthy?” In an age of instant
communication, in which there is little time for reflection,
accuracy, balance or integrity -- the media regularly creates the
impression that sleaze, is everywhere and that nothing is sacred.
So which comes first, media or the news, the chicken or the egg?
Bibliography lists 8 sources.
