Media Sensationalist

I dislike sensationalist programs. Sensationalist media is defined as the one which involves use of fear, anger excitement and thrill to increase the viewership. These types of programs want to shock us as much as possible. The sensationalism is being practiced by religious channels and also in gossip programs, but also is used to reporting news. I've graduated in Comunication and as far as I´m concerned, this type of reporting shows the dark side of journalism and has caused a degradation of values in our society. Sensationalism is so deeply embedded in our society that we don´t know which information is true. As if it was not enough, even the celebrities aren´t spared. I think it´s high time that media just started reporting facts. The rest should be left to the public to interpret and understand the meaning. We need more information, education and not only fun and drama in our Tv.
