More and more newspapers and news channels are using photographs to support their news articles and stories. Some people think that photographs are not a reliable source of news while others consider photographs to be irrefutable. Discuss both sides and give your opinion.
The increasing number of printed media and
news
channels prefer to use related pictures
as a supporter of their news
articles
and stories. Some would argue that using pictures
is an unreliable source of news
while
others think pictures
are undeniable. Although
using photographs to support their news
might be an unreliable source I believe using pictures
next to articles
can be interesting to read.
On the one hand, sometimes companies
are putting related images with articles
to make their newspapers more interesting even if they are not real. Someone who is reading daily newspapers on the internet or printed media can be influenced by those pictures
. If corporations can fake their readers with images, they can sell more of their products and make more profits. For example
, in Turkey, most companies
are using well-known actors' photographs in their adverts to make more reliable their products. However
, I believe we cannot deny the importance of pictures
even if they might be far away from reality.
On the other hand
, we cannot ignore the importance of images for newspapers as well as
people
who are reading them. This
is to say, when we are reading some text either on the internet or on paper can be boring. If companies
are including pictures
even if they are not reliable, it can be beneficial for providers and people
will be eager to read. For instance
, newspaper corporations are putting interesting pictures
which are related to an article on a title to make people
click that link. I believe this
school of thought is preferable because people
will not get bored while
they are reading something and, consequently
, it will be advantageous for providers.
To conclude
, although
many individuals considered that putting photos in their news
channels and, also
on written media can be unreliable, pictures
will make articles
more interesting hence
, people
will want to read more. Eventually, most of the companies
are going to have benefited financially.Submitted by gultekinmahmutgazi on
