Editor-in-Chief
Flipping newspaper daily or switching on TV for news, it is sure the day start is going to be horrific these days as all the news imparting media be it print or electronic are mostly focusing on blood,bloodshed,rape,communal disharmony.Why is this happening that these kind of news are predominantly occupying a majority of airtime on news channels or space on print it is mainly because i as a human being experienced that we human beings have a beast inside which is surely interested in seeing these kind of news ,but at a stretch it becomes disharmonious which you also might have experienced as going through such kind of news you are sure to have a bad mood day ahead.
But why is it that media is not analyzing this fact and continuing on with these horrific news at large ,are the news desk at various media organisations became so insensitive that they don’t realize what message is being spread at large to the viewers or the readers or to the small kids who watch these news with their parents or they read in the paper which is a part of their curriculum in school stationary provided by the school.
I sometime see that media at large should start the day news with some positive news only and the negative news should be in such a ratio that it shouldn’t disturb the mental equilibrium of a healthy individual.
Isn’t it there that far are not the days when people will fear to open the news channels and newspapers at the aghastly sights of incidents covered now everyday.
My friends from media please give a thought to this as you are the one who shape our nation thinking by your views and coverage.
