Weekly Task 5

In my country, there a lot of media company that own the newspapers and the TV station. By then, they only effect me on just the local news. For the international news, I can seek more references in the internet or other form of media . The local media is doing their best to provide the local news for the local people. By then, they also can be manipulated our mind with just some incorrect information or false news make by them.  So we can’t rely on them fully trust with the news that they provide to us. In other mean, we also need to hear from the local people view.

Nowadays things getting more manipulated as more media company is involve of collection news and information of the nations. Like I inform on the previous essay, it depend on who wrote it and where they collect the source of the information. It hard because we can’t refer to other new source such as international news because they only focus to the huge topic. So there is come where we also need to see and look another point of view in the local people view. This is help us to gain the information a lot more accurate and correct because there lot of reference to be refer and prove of it. That why to confirm something, we need to do research about it.

In the local news, it might effect me when there are fake news such as more about politics. The normal citizen can’t criticize more on the politics because it been manipulated by the high power people. We can only see for our own eye about that. More than that, the local news haven’t any effect on me, unless there is the topic that I really want to read about it or interested in it. 

In the end, the newspaper and TV stations is only own to the media company which only they can manipulated and control the news. But there are some local newspaper or TV station whom is listen to the citizen view instead of making their own point of views. But also this will make the information misleading or might be correct. We can’t do anything about the news company because they can kept us living in the fear by just manipulating the news. This is just a view from me and this is what I think about our local newspaper and TV stations.
