The content and character of news programming can have far-reaching political consequences. Discuss three kinds of media effects and give a detailed example of each. Is there any bias in the kind of issues media chooses to report
Media can polarize the political landscape more, when they have a very clear editorial position or political bias, and only report those news that are unfavorable to the other political group.
Media can lead to disinformation when they do not have high reporting standards, and spread information that has not been confirmed by realiable sources.
Media can accelerate social change by spreading ideas to a large audience that otherwise would remain hardly known.
