Social Welfare Institutions

The second film I chose to watch is on media. ” Fox News” The role of media in a democratic society is important as air is for birds. Without media, there’s no democracy. Certain people consider media as the fourth branch after the executive, legislative and the judiciary. But the role of Fox News in United States democracy life let people confused and ambiguous meaning in the views mind. Not all the television are concerned about this critic, only Fox new one the major network in the country. This media instead of informing the audience, chooses not to do so but mislead, misinformed listeners. The news are not faithfully present as it supposed to. Information is not objective, information based on the host opinions. For example the media can present or pay people to play certain role during the news to perform some roles to give a positive views to the audience and let them believe that this is really true. Fox does  not treat its guest with dignity, respect and worst Fox want you to believe what it believe no matter what. It humiliate, embarrassed challenge and discourage their guests , Fox is always rights and you always wrong no matter what. Thers’ no fairness in their reporting. Fox works for the Republican more than for the Democratic. Fox is able to take your statement and make it an opposite statement or distort it or make it  that you are wrong.

After watching this movie, I felt upset and revolt because it’s similar to most developing countries, where only the government is in control of the media and the opposition can’t not have access to it. All the information are in favor of the government. I could not believe such thing in  US, most developed and democratic country in the world.
