Media and the Effect on Today’s Society
You are the news director of a local television station. The city council has just voted to close city parks three days a week to save money. Meanwhile, a major celebrity has died. The park story has greater effect on your viewers, but the celebrity death will get bigger ratings? Which do you make your lead story and why?
The news story based on the three parks closing should take priority over the celebrity dying. The park story does have a greater effect on the community. It affects schools, churches, and families. These groups count on the parks for recreation both for students and for their own families. Many families and individual will spend money in the community and then enjoy their food while visiting the park. Without parks available, the local restaurants suffer the loss of business. It affects jobs
