News has always been biast toward the reporters point off view, and is written or presented in a way that will provoke certain feelings out of the audience. Whom that audience is, is crucial in what and how the reporter writes and reports on. For example, News Papers that were written in the era of racism would write, in a “white news paper”, how Blacks attacked the police and rebeled against authority. Where as in a Black paper, the top story would be a Black male being beaten by the white police. This just goes to show that what we read or see in news can and will often be biast towards its audience.
Everyone Im sure has seen the movie Harry Potter: And the Goblet of Fire, but if you have not there is a scene, after he gets chosen as a champion for the Tri Wizard Cup, where he was forced into a closet with Ritta Skitta a writer for The Daily Profit. She begins to interview him, and as she does so she asks Harry questions regarding the Cup and his parents. And as this interview continues she falsely states his age and exaduarates what Harry is saying. Which is a perfect example of what media is, media is the manipulated truth that, in a scense tells us what we want to here. Ritta Skitta is a figure head to all news in present day. They report news, and supress the biast exaduated truth that “their ” audiences belive and turst.
