I just hate the Media for being Bias and Sensational most of the time

Its the same way in the United States. Its all about getting the higher rating and the most money. I seriously believe its like that all over the world. The media consist of a bunch of greedy people looking for the most money and not caring how they get it. They would pimp their own mom to get the most money. Its quite ugly out there in my opinion.

from my Basic Philippine Constitution class i have learned that freedom is not absolute, but with regards as to how media works in our nation, i believe for them freedom is absolute.. Media is very much powerful that they are ones that regulate there own rules.. No one has ever been put to prison when this media people commits mistake, lets take for example the manila hostage crisis... it is clear as to who was or is to be blame and yet they suffer no consequences in doing so..

They're either biased, or out of their minds.. or both. I don't watch news because it's either sad, political, or both.

dear LK, Did you noticed my new avatar in facebook dear brother? That's my way of shouting how biased they are and damn*d their way of broadcasting I hope your pc is working fine now and I do miss talking with you in fb chat sis, jaiho®

Hi,Letran! Generally,I'm content with Chinese Media.At least the local ones.They report news quite objectively and care about people's lives and well-being.The only problem of Chinese Media is that you can rarely hear anything in conflict with the Party's interests.They all speak for the Communist Party of China,which inevitably leads to the consequence that you can rarely hear different voices concerning some international issues.Most of us believe what the Chinese Media say,though. Things are getting better now.Many newspapers dare to speak for themselves and question those issues which the government or local government dealt with improperly.Still,there is a long way to go. Have a nice day~

In my own personal opinion, media will die if they don't sensationalized things. As stated before in a previous discussion, it's their breads and butter. But as an individual, I have a choice of turning that TV off and find some respectable news org that will give me the pure news or, at least the least sensationalized and biased kind. Perhaps we could learn some lessons from the decaying practice of reporting. We can be a better audience if we can spot networks doing these things and thanks to the new technology, we can search for own news preferences aside from the usual choices. I cannot blame the networks becuase I understand that they need to run a business but perhaps that not a blanket excuse for doing a crappy service and being hypocrite on their slogans. I guess in this stage, we are more free and more critical when it comes to our news. We deserve better since information is a very crucial in today's world. we don;t want to be exploited and I don't want to be an excuse for the networks for their 'unbiased' service. For me, this situation forces me to look beyond the news and the industry. After all, we deserve better.

or to push a certain point of view...

The Media do really have the tendency to sensationalize. Sometimes they make big things out of small one if only to gain media mileage. This is the reason why I don't always believe the media. Indeed there are also bias reports and surely the reason has something to do with the favor they receive from the favored ones. However there are also some few exceptions on this issue.
