Is Rajnikanth the real boss?
Bollywood sitcom pushes a media person
Minister pushed a women

These were headlines flashing on most of the news channels during the weekends.Do you think that they don't have anyother news to chase.

Hey Deepak,
nice topic u have pulled off.... I would agree that media content has been surely deteriorating these days... Mostly the newspapers are either filled with murders, dacoity, rapes, etc or with stardom masala... Very rarely u find stuff which encourages people, but mostly the stuff which makes u feel that the world is getting reduced to dust and the fact is that such news increases their TRP but it is a self-centered benefit and nothing else.

I feel that the media should bury such news in between the papers and the front page should be made with more creative and generally-benefitting news.

The media is a very powerful tool to populate ideas amongst the masses and hence, whatever they publish or show on cinema, should be thought of from the public domain as well.
 
I wud say a we shud impose a law to the media channels to have compulsory a dose of educational content in their everyday agenda.There are channels from Doordarshan who still teach thru channels.But hardly there are sponsers/viewers.That way we can drag the mad media from the house of Bollywood & BCCI and ask them to start concentrate on smeting useful.

I absolutely agree that media content has deteriorated these days. The most respected names in Paper Media today are filled with content which I personally feel cannot be viewed in your drawing room with your family. A burning example is the Page3 (Bombay Times). It was the first to start and now we have almost each one having atleast a dedicated page for this type of content. This is surely being done to raise readership/subscriptions and the ultimate profit motive.

I feel that the media should act more responsibly.

Media is a powerful tool which should be used in a very able manner with the "public at large" in mind.
 
thanx a lot fr saying whhat i wantd to say from past many months!! hey am really wrried about the trend taht these media channels are following. i jus want to add smthing:
there was a gud meaningful debate that was going on same topic on a news channel when everyone was asking the reason to showcase abhishek shaadi or rakhi sawant on tv 24x 7 without nay damn good reason.when suddenly the media retorted back as " we show all this crap becauz u all want to see it!!dn't you guys ( every age grp) interested inknowing wats going on in ur favorite artist life?" and to my amusement there was a big silence..that showed the media is showing wat we want to watch. then smone asked y 24x7 the media person laughed that its the same show taht is repeated, so no fault of their own.after that they were brave enough to conclude that "media iwll show wat they found highly paying"its upto you to watch it or not!!"
i felt so disgusting that all the people sitting there were silent. didn't anyone dare to say taht am least bothered wat hrithik roshan or say amitabh bachan do offscreen... they are inviduals should have rights to live their lives calmly privately..
so i guess we are more responsible fr this ill act rather than media.. the moment we will start watching gud stuff..they will be quiker than wind to change!!!
take care
anu
 
Well deteriorating is actually a beeter word it is goin to a level of disgusting.....i dont know how do they manage to get this crap from...everyday they will show a wife beating an husband...some people bashing up some sadhus on charges of molestaion...n if they dotn find such strange issues..they always can spend hours on discussing on sachin or the bachans...

Well imposing restriction always hamper creativity so this will definately not be the proper solution..only they themselves can change

well i accept with anu that they show these news only because there is a demand...but people can watch anything if they want to waste their time so they can use this time for displaying something better telling the complete life history of sachin everytime he scores a century.

ya i agree with the statement..no doubt content being shwon by media, especially electronic media is deteriorating day by day...seems like the gud old days of doordarshan news were better...just 2 bulletins of news..no crap...just plain news in the simplest manner possible,
the reasons are there with us....we like this crap..we see this crap...we love this watch crap...and we feel delighted by the fact that we r part of all this crap....media has nw become a circus...were everyone has a time slot, and in that time audience's attention need to be captured...the day we stop replying to the weirdest questions via sms, this all will come to an halt

P.S : ahmermbalbale mentioned in his post (see quote), wife beating husbandis it like that....big time
:bigsmile:
 
yes it is deteriorating but its still serving the major class of society because it is ultimately audience who decides which content is good and bad ...it shows where the society is driving towards and it is really a much more subjective issue...its upto you to select the content you want to see and throw the rubbish out of the game
 
Id agree 2 dis! To a great extent v c many news channels makin a small issue a huge news n fashin it over n over again!! The news regardin any celeb is just blown outta proportion at times!! The glamour seems 2 b a hot topic 4 various news channels & there r also some very disappointin repetitive n not so imp news been given 2 much weightage i thnk there shud b a line drawn 2 it smetimes! The real imp n news of concern 2 da society on a serious note shudnt get over shadowed!
 
Yes

More sensational the better also
in a bid at scooping others innocent
persons are accused.

"SABSE TEJ" is taking over.
 
News gets worse day by day.Media tells us what we want to hear and not what the actual news is.If the -ve aspect will give them more popularity then they focus on it.The "Behind the scenes" which violates peoples private lives is becomming more popular, a tool for informing large masses about good understading of various aspects and news is becomming senseless. Same things again and again. The smallest dumbest senseless thing is made into big TIme NeWs now dayz.Thank god for certain channels that shows only business related news.Cause media content is getting very pathetic as days go by

Yeah now they require to 24/7 news so they are giving nonsense
 
you are right now a days media new channels deliver knew they make new!! they have become entertainment channels rather
 
hi..i really like the topic..i think the media which obviously is inclusive of the entertainment channels as wel shows things which bring out the negative aspects of life..they are mostly depressing and demoralising. for example eah n every show talks abt infidelity but none talks of how one can b happy together..similarly the news channels shows the existing greed amog the current politic scenario...however none of the channels encourage the youth to enter the political breed or make them enthusiastic to change it...the media is obv the most powerful form which can influence anyone very easily
