The mainstream media doesn't report the news they make the news and/or make it up.

For yrs. it was all we have now we have the new media and what are wew seeing the decline of the mainstream media and their strong old.

The big 3 are no longer in charge!

Hello everybody, I think this is a very important topic. I am from Italy and, as you know, information was a real problem her. Berlusconi was the first governement minister and he has a lot of connumication channel...so how you can immage he could influence a lot of people. I think that not only information but also other ma** media create stereotypes that sugest our point of you. Wha do you think about?

Look to the new media, the underground media. read all you can and see if they all use the same talking points. If so, you know you have real issues!

Yes it would be nice if there was a respect for national ethics in the United States without "special interests". Countries like Japan respect there elders and that sure would be a good start to ethics via age and experiences.

My biggest beef with the whole media situation today is that in a democracy, the media is the ONLY thing that keeps it healthy. That’s the very reason why so many of our countries have allotted special powers and protections to them… unfortunately the one thing they left out was protection from the media itself, or rather, corporately controlled media.

It saddens me to see all of the problems in today’s society, and the general lack of education we all have in regard to the issues. It obviously isn’t just the media at fault; it is also our education systems which seem to have evolved into nothing more then a way to educate a good little “employee” and not “productive citizens”. By that I mean, we all learn the basics needed to work in the new capitalist corporate world; reading, writing, math etc, but when it comes to what is important to running an open democracy we are in the dark. If you want to learn the important subjects for this field, like economics, historical interpretation, the law, or politics, you literally need to mortgage the next 10 years of your life to pay for that “higher” education that the more wealthy families get consistently. Obviously on the whole Europe is better off in this regard with a more socialized University structure that makes me envious, but it could still be far better.

Anyway I digress, back to the media. In a world where we now get most of the needed information to make educated decisions from the media, they have wholly failed us. The worst part is, EVERYONE starts out the same way, not realizing that their local media is incredibly biased, or at least very selective in what they print in order to show you a world view that is wanted by corporations, the owners of the media, who are also the ones who pay for the ads that keep it going and therefore further decide which stories we hear, and how they are told for fear of losing ad revenue. Look at what happened to the Daily Herald in the UK. Some of us eventually get curious and start looking for other perspectives, and it doesn’t take long to realize if you Google the same story in 4 different countries media, you get 4 completely different stories, all of which tell a portion of the truth. The problem is, a large percentage of the population of most countries never does this, and goes on living by the accepted wisdom that has been selectively put before them. That leads to countries whose politicians are elected by the ‘selectively educated’ masses, and nothing ever changes. When someone speaks up, you are labeled a radical, or “bleeding heart liberal” by those very same masses.

Scary world we live in today. One of the worst parts is, even when you realize your local media is biased and begin looking for the “whole truth” you are often bombarded with unreliable “conspiracy theory” “hippie” websites, documentaries, and media that further promotes the idea that anyone questioning the ‘selective education’ is in fact a conspiracy theorist. Without an independent, truly free media, how do you trust anything that is written on any subject? The only way common folk like you or I can now get “the whole truth” is by researching for countless hours on every topic of concern… and that is a task that unfortunately most of us with busy lives, and long hours at the office, simply do not have time for.

To be clear, I am not saying that the media “lies” to us per say. That would be near impossible in today’s society, at least in the long term. What I am saying is, they “promote” the news they want to, and either neglect the rest, or outright suppress it.

I honestly believe that the only way to correct the path our nations seem to be on today is with a healthy, independent media. The question is, how do you create a healthy independent media that could compete with a corporately funded one?

Any ideas?

when I was studying the media at school we looked into how even though thousands of people go missing every year that the story was most likely to be reported if it was a young pretty blonde female who did well in school. Its sad that society is forced to be so prejudiced as this!
