Media: A Strong Weapon of Modern Times

In today's world media both print and television have become so strong that everything is under its scanner. Any small thing that is happening in the world every moment is being transmitted to the public through television as Breaking News. This has bad effect and good effect too. Rulers of the countries always try to suppress the media to keep their misdeeds under the carpet. But the role of a responsible media is to unearth it. Sometimes the reporters are faced with serious consequences. In spite of all the odds, the journalists try to unveil the truth of the events creating public awareness. Sometimes the result is very good and there are a number of instances when the miscreants became compelled to resign or faced legal proceedings. Although it is also true that the media barons worked for any articular group or politicians causing hardship to general people.
