Media is a wonderful thing. For instance, if it was not for technology I would not be writing a blog and this is a form of media. However, there are times that media really can damage people's images or even a nation's image. Also it can cause a nation to divide because of the information they give to the people.
Broadcast Media is beginning to damage America because of the information they give. They give information that will make Americans react and they want the news to be interesting. The media likes to present the Congress' differences and what they disagree upon. However, they do not show what they agree on or if they do it is only a minute broadcast. For instance, right now the media is focused on the Jobs Bill and on how much Republicans and Democrats do not agree. On the other hand, while the Jobs Bill is going on they did not show the Republicans and Democrats worked together to get THREE new trade agreements passed and President Obama signed off on it.
The media likes to present the drama of Congress and not what they agree on. Instead they prefer to get a rise out of Americans. I understand that it is their way of making news, but they are dividing the nation. They are constantly hounding at Congress. They hound Congress so much that politicians seem like they are campaigning in non-election years. If a Republican agrees with the Democrats he suddenly gets shunned and vice versa. If they agree with the opposite political party, that means trying to work together and agree with the other side.
Politicians are dividing up the United States along with the media because they refuse to make compromises. They refuse to agree with one another because they know the media will look down upo
n them and try to make them look bad to their Constituents.
America we need to start agreeing and stop depending on the media. If you do not have time listen to CNN and FOX News to see the different sides. Stop letting the media divide this nation even further down the line. As a nation we need to begin compromising. Otherwise, this nation will fall apart and we will be in a Civil War. Th federal government needs to compromise with one another and stop blaming each other because it is everyone's fault.
Media is not a bad thing, but it is hurting our nation. The downfall of broadcast media is that it tends to favor one side or the other and then it further divides the people. We have to learn how to compromise or else we will all end up to be losers.
