Peeking to the
Larger Scope of Regional News
Regional
news is considered as an important part of modern journalism. Hence, like
journalism itself, regional news presentations actually serve as a natural
source of social benefit. Obviously, as the main reason why journalism exists
is for social reason, the main effects of the said art of communication are
directly focused upon the society itself. News and other feature programs
produced through the existence of journalism are directly affecting the different
aspects of living of the society. The said aspects are to be discussed
separately in the paragraphs that follow:
·
Human Relationship
The
fact that the people are able to see how certain life issues affect others, at
times, their decisions are then affected so much by what they learn especially
from documentary- focused programs shared through the journalism mediums.
·
Human Social Views
Once
the social issues are featured through programs, it could not be denied that
the views and opinions that they once had focused on either the negative or the
positive side of the issue is gradually changed due to the views presented
through media.
·
Political Preferences
During
elections, many people in the society rely on what they are able to hear from
media. Their decisions on who they are supposed to elect are usually affected
either by the programs that are produced to feature the personalities who are
connected or in relation with the ones running for position.
·
Community Awareness
One
of the main features of news and journalism is the exposure of the society to
the possible criminal threats that are present in the human community. Once
they are encouraged to remain aware by the ways that journalism presents the
truth about the hidden facts about social crimes, they are then motivated to
stay currently updated and aware of what is happening to the society and how
the said situations are supposed to affect their lives personally.
These
breakdowns of social effects produced by journalism certainly points out the
fact that media and the system that controls it directly affect the lives of
the people living in the society. This is the main reason why even though the
journalism system is practiced on either the First or the Third world
countries; it should always be considered by journalists that what the people
want is honest reporting. The credibility of journalism systems is a very
important factor that should always be present in journalism practices. Hence,
even though high tech gadgets are not present in the present society of the
third world countries, this should not be a hindrance for the journalists of
the said countries to having been able to produce high-level and high-quality
reports for the society. Regional news reporting system is all at once
considering the fact that it too is a part of modern journalistic aims of
providing the people with honest and informative news. Hence, this makes the
entire members of journalists handling regional news responsible for handling
regional information at the most credible level they could consider.
