Nowadays, there is a trend that reports of media focus on problems and emergencies rather than positive development. Some people think it is harmful to individuals and to society. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

It is true that the
media
tends to broadcast more negative reports rather than positive
news
which some
people
believe impacts the public and
society
from a bad perspective. I completely agree with
this
argument and I will present a variety of reasons to support it in
this
essay. There are various negative influences on individuals and
society
from intensive reporting of negative information and extreme
cases
.
Firstly
, it brings anxiety and pressures which could lead to health issues
such
as mental disorders.
For instance

as education, economy and stability. It would be good to report more positive development due to many reasons.
Firstly
,
people
could learn to think of the good aspects of a situation rather than the bad ones.
For example
