The media play a very vital role in the flow of information in the society.
The media have the power in affecting the public opinion about an issue.
The media should report an issue or an information without partisan slanting or bias. The facts should be the headline, not the , ''look what the other side did this time''
The actual violation of the law should be reported reason being if they leave it at what happened it does not give the viewers context or even validity.
Quoting the laws violated makes it more solid, any comments on the ethics should be included at the end.
The media should report on the event not attacking the politics otherwise they fuel the divide and they lose much of their audience which leaves it less known.
