When
discussing whether the media should focus on
emergemcies
a sudden unforeseen crisis (usually involving danger) that requires immediate action
emergencies
, rather than positive development, one should bear in mind the complexity of the issue.
Although
some people think covering only emergencies is not bad, I believe it is bad for our
society
and should be prevented. In
this
essay I will provide
example
and reasons to support my
opinion
. One argument in favour of my
opinion
is that

country
. Another reason supporting my
opinion
is that when covering only emergencies on the media, many children and young adults become anxious and afraid, which can lead to severe medical issues. As an
example
, by giving substantial media coverage to violent crimes, parents become afraid to let their children play outside, and
this
will increase the children's anxiety and stress. Eventually,

about the good things in our surroundings.
