Answer 1

the media agenda helps us by focusing on the issue that affect our life but some time the media does not set appropriate agenda to raise important issue

Answer 2

The positive and negative effects of the agenda set by the media are as follows:

Positive Effects:

• The media sets agendas and bring some neglected topics into the limelight.
• As these topics grab the attention of the public and the administration, chances of getting justice fairly improve.

Negative Effects:

• The media has the power to shape people's opinions and thoughts.
• Very often media deliberately only shows a part of the story and targets a particular group. The audience is hence forced to think in a particular way.
