                                                                                                                              Impact of Media

Good morning to all. Today, I stand here to voice my concerns on how media influences public opinion.

Media is a powerful weapon in any democracy. It keeps people abreast with the recent changes and development in the society and the world. It also helps them understand these developments and build their opinion about the same. With the development of better methods of communication, the influence of media has increased. Consequently, its responsibility of delivering correct information has also increased. If people blindly believe on whatever either print or electronic media tells them, our democracy may suffer badly. As the media has the power to showcase both the facets of a piece of information, it should work towards helping the common man understand the pros and cons of any issue or event.

Thus, one can clearly say that it is the responsibility of media and the media personnel to ensure that they direct their efforts towards building a constructive and balanced society and nation.

Thank you
