Should media be biased? Or neutral?


[ ##thumbs-o-up##  Share Testimonial here - make our day!]  

World media needs to be impartial and unbiased, which, at present, it is not. Due to globalization of information, biases quickly travel across the globe. This leads to some pre-held notions about particular leaders of countries in one section of the media to influence other media all over the world. The media should analyze issues on the basis of the ‘why’, the ‘how’, the ‘when’ and the ‘what’ of the issue rather than the ‘who’. They should focus their attention on the issue rather than the person who has raised the issue. Possibly leaders like Trump, or Modi may be doing things right, but the media should start its analysis about it without a pre-conceived bias to understand the intentions of such leaders. When the media calls Modi a ‘Hindu nationalist’, it does not bother to explain it or understand whether he wants to nuance or change his image. The casual use of the term makes the analysis cheap. If neutrality is adhered to, the quality of the analysis would also improve. The media needs to ask meaningful questions to itself about particular policies of a leader before starting it analysis. The important question is not about the correctness or otherwise of a policy, but it rather is about not getting caught in media frenzy. For instance, the possible restrictions on H-1B visa could be an opportunity for India to start building its own Silicon Valley with the easy access to US jobs having been vanished. As Trump has said, if the media stays neutral, it can be ‘tremendous’, but if it stays biased, it can be a ‘disaster’.
