Information is the key to success, be it battle a field or an exam halls, the better informed has better chances of success. 'News', as I understand is information of recent events or old ones which were not told then, and hence told aloud in the present.One thing which I don't understand though, is what makes news channels decide one is better than other. I understand that money is necessarily an important factor, besides empowering through educating. There's nothing I can talk about money and hope to effectively persuade and prevent the reporting of such news which has a very deep, negative impact. No matter how hard I think, I never am able to find any good reason behind the reporting of bomb blasts, on front pages and on prime times, which occurred at places too far or near, or of news with exclusive videos of terrorist at work or practice, which all terrorizes the common man, creating doubts as to who the real terrorist is, the one who created disharmony or the ones who brought it to into our peaceful homes.
I do not in anyway undermine the security of the common man, but just feel that it would serve for better purposes, to enlighten one of good things than of bad ones which sends fear down our spine, and leads to dismay, horror and a deep sense of insecurity, which are primarily what the outrageous attacks carried out by the devils masked as men seek to achieve.
Hiding the truth doesn't become a lie, and even if it does, I am only for attaching lesser sensation to news reports as I've mentioned above. Let's not expose our children to the real world of horror, rather we'll gift them the world of trust, because, by doing so we'll be shaping a future, one filled with hope and peace.This I conclude based on my belief that terrorism, is a response of people who felt insecure and those who had no hopes of settling with peace until their threats were dispersed, and that by making more people feel insecure, we'll inevitably be creating more of such terrorist. This does not even amount to hiding real events, because those who need to be told of such horrific news will find them between the pages of the news paper, or in news channels that deliver news reports with much more maturity, and we need not be reminded that there is internet.
It is my belief that the media is a great tool capable of transforming and shaping peoples life, and it is my wish that it polishes our thoughts to reflect hope and faith, which is most required during hard times, like the one we're now in.
There are real forces operating against the establishment of harmony in our society. Let us, therefore, not submit to them.
