the media is corrupting our society
II do not agree that the media is corrupting our society. Most people say that media nowadays often show violent and obscene scenes that are damaging to the people, especially the innocent children who are deem as immature citizens of the society who cannot differentiate good and bad and what to accept.
But in my opinion, I do not feel that the media is corrupting our society. Media in my opinion is only a tool for us to get our information, enjoy entertaining shows to pass time. Thus it is us that will decide what is right and what is wrong, as we are intelligent human beings. Of course that might be some group of people who are not able to do so, take for example children. In order to tackle this problem, the media itself has already done its part by having censorship. One way that media execute censorship is through movies. Movies are first audited by authorizes and they are classified into different categories – PG, N16, M18, R21. There is an age cap for those who are underage, which prevent them from watching movies, which contain scenes that they are unable to digest. This is one of the way that media has done its part. We should also exhibit moral values and make a valid judgment and not push the blame to the media, which is a very irresponsible action. Take for example, knife is used for many different purposes; it is used to cut our food into size able pieces, wood which benefit the users. However, the negative side of knife is that it can be used to stab people, inflict harm on others. So do we deem knife as something bad and banned from using it. Definitely not. This is a stupid mindset as we all know whether the knife is benefit the man or harm the man depend on the users; which is us. The media is same as . the knife. It really depend on us, the viewers which will react to the shows.
In conclusion, I feel that indeed the media is not corrupting our society.
