Explanation:

The media is a watchdog of democracy because it keeps tabs on the work of the government and keeps the people of the country aware of the steps taken by the government.  

The media is the middleman, it bridges the gap between the public and the government. The active eye of the media observes the steps taken by the government and ensures that the government in anyway doesn’t exploit its powers.  

If anything as such happens, then the government has the risk of losing the support of the people.
