Answer 1

In what ways does the media bring the problems of the common man to the forefront?
Media does and will bring the problems of common man to the forefront,

if there is scope for whipping up emotions

if there is scope for promoting the specific Media baron's personal political/ business/ religious affiliation to the front in the garb of public interest
if there is scope for getting better TRP rating for the debates/ coverage
if there is no other next major news or event happening, which they can catch hold of and start their next cycle of above exercise!
