It is good for university students to take part in part time job. To what extent you agree or disagree?

Media reports are often accompanied by illustrations and according to some, these are far more impactful than written content.

However

, depending on the news, I consider both to be as equally effective as the other.

To begin

with, undoubtedly photographs can capture a reader’s interest instantly as opposed to texts where the person has to show a genuine interest to read.

This

is particularly true in younger age groups who would pursue listening to a TV news broadcast if only an illustration is successful in grabbing their attention.

Furthermore

, at times people do not understand the gravity of the matter until the pictures come into play as after all rising death tolls just seem to be numbered. To exemplify, the society started talking Covid-19 precautionary measures more seriously after the media published some of the heart wrenching photographs of hospitalized Covid affected patients and exhausted doctors, for an effective passage of the message.

On the other hand

, texts have so much to convey regarding a story, that a mere picture cannot put forth; as the words have the power to awaken a reader’s imagination by an in depth description of events.

For instance

, Martin Luther King Jr, declared

such

a sensational speech ‘I have A Dream’,

that is

till date remembered not only by the American people, but

also

by the whole world, using only words to engage the audience’s attention; same goes for a well written column by a journalist.

Moreover

,

although

a pictorial presentation might capture one’s thought at a glimpse, the reader can swiftly lose the interest and turn the page;

nonetheless

presence of an intriguing written text would push the reader to read ahead.

For example

, a picture of a man in spacesuit might mean nothing as compared to a text of ‘

First

American Man Has Made His voyage To Space’.

Thus

, dependently, the words can speak louder than pictures. In conclusion,

although

the illustrations are quick to grab the reader’s mind, words can play an equal crucial role in highlighting serious matters.

Thus

, in my opinion, neither surpasses one another; a newspaper or TV ought to include both approaches for effective broadcasting of news.
