Just a few decades ago, the news media was operated only through radio and printed newspapers.

However

, it has now entered the daily lives of citizens through many modern devices

such

as phones, laptops. While it has an enormous impact on most people’s life, I partly agree that

this

is a mostly negative development, and I will mention the reason why in

this

essay. On the one hand, Disadvantages of media include the risk of inaccurate reporting and loss of privacy. Sometimes, in a rush to be the

On the other hand

, the media can play a very vital and helpful role. News can leave audiences with different impressions about life around the world. Via a few news articles, audiences can learn about how beautiful of other countries around the world. It is

also

common to find articles on how miserable people are at wars, how bad the living conditions are, or how unstable the political situation is in some certain areas.

In addition

, we make a lot of mutual acquaintances to broaden our knowledge about the culture,
