Today in democracy media has too much power. Because people (including me sometimes) never analyse the news. People just believe whatever is written as truth.
Media can tranish a person's image and make him to take suicide pill or rise a person to the clouds without much effort. Media can devastate a family and childrens of such family can get mentally unstable.
Media doesnt tolerate any person who criticize them. If media dont like you they can always paint it black anything you do. Media has uncontrolled power and its misuse is very rampant.
If any one (say God) offer me unscrupulous power I certainly reject it. Because the moment I have so much of power I will have too much of responsibility and too many judgements to make which is a headache. Also because of lack of maturity I may use it in wrong way. So I rather have limited power and do my duty and pray God to help me.
As some one said you dont need any qualification to become reporter or a columnist. Hence lot of journalists without much qualification or maturity just write whatever they feel or partial in nature.
Hence media should controlled with some strict rules. Without evidence or authenticated or responsible source they should not write anything. No rumours and speculations. If anything they wrote is proved wrong they should apologize on the same page number, font, size, space covered for the original article.
