Question

Do you think government control on media is justified? What happen if the media was completely independent?Give reason to support your answer

Answer 1

•Government control over the media should not be encouraged.

•Media should not support particularly any political party or any other independent structures.

•It should be impartial and shoe equality towards everyone.

This political influence on the media makes the news partial to one particular government and the truth is not known to the public.

•This political influence helps in covering up their flaws and helps people to see what the politicians want them to see

•If the media is independent there will be no threats to the journalists who want to show the truth to the people hence the public knows the truth.

•We want such media. Not the one what politicians wants us to see.
