Controversies And Issues Effecting Media

(Usama Khatri, Karachi)

Media nowadays plays a vital role in all the aspects of life, as it is a need of every citizen to get aware about the current situations or events taking place in the country. As there are many positive and negative impacts of media in our views but we should know that what issues does a media channel have in their daily routine. Some information passed by any media channel hitting some political party so they warned them and sometimes these political parties target the media channel as we have the example of ARY news, targeted by a political party here we are not considering the names of those party but the example is very crystal clear. Now if we talk about live transmission if any disaster happens in the form of bomb blast or firing etc media channels shoot the live coverage and if any injured people shown on the screen so they are warned by the PEMRA to neglect these shootages but if we look towards it so it is impossible to neglect these shootages rather they are doing their job to do their best to give information to the people its our responsibility that we should take care of our children that they don’t watch them, no one is interested to share these images or videos because there is a thought of humanity in every human mind.

Now further we talk about advertising agenda so there is a big chain of advertisement every company wants to sell their products so they keep putting pressure on the media channel to consider their products on prime time but it is impossible for media owners to give every company a equal chance it is true that they are paying for it but they also want their product to be shown on screen.

Therefore the media faces many issues and problems in their daily routine, having the responsibility of giving information to the people they have to look after their whole criteria.
