what should be the responsible role of media in a democracy
Answers
ANSWER:
Media has given political parties the tools to reach large numbers of people and can inform them on key issues ranging from policies to elections. In theory, media should be seen as an enabler for democracy, having better-educated voters would lead to a more legitimate government.
Answer:
The Mainstream media is a place where anyone can contribute to important issues and topics of discussion. Media Democracy encompasses this idea by advocating for ideas such as free and independent press. The overarching goal is to achieve a free, open, and accessible internet for everyone. Thus creating a diverse space for media ownership from all walks of life to contribute into a larger collective without suppression. Such campaigns include “Freedom of The Press”, “BroadBand Access”, “Net Neutrality”, and “Media Consolidation”.
Media democracy is a democratic approach to media studies that advocates for the reform of mass media to strengthen public service broadcasting and develop participation in alternative media and citizen journalism in order to create a mass media system that informs and empowers all members of society and enhances democratic values. Media is also defined as "medium" a way of communicating with others.
