To what extent do you agree or disagree?
Exemplary response
Bad news dominating the headlines is having an undesirable influence on society. Psychologically, this type of news, unless managed properly, may keep readers in a state of stress and lead them to experience trauma. Stories about ISIS slaughtering innocent citizens for example caused massive damage to people’s mental states and instilled fear into their minds. Also, frequent exposure to negative news can distort readers’ perception of reality. In Vietnam for example, it seems that members of the media do not focus on keeping the public informed of current events anymore, both locally and globally. Instead, they are trying to publish articles with the primary aim of attracting more viewers and therefore increasing profits. This, unfortunately, shapes readers’ outlook on society in a negative way.
On the contrary, incorporating positive news into the media may yield favorable outcomes for the broader populace. It serves to renew our belief in humanity, prompting ethical decisions that promote moral values in society. Positive news narratives, as opposed to negative ones, can also have a beneficial psychological impact. Such narratives have the potential to elevate individuals' spirits, fostering a more positive outlook and enhancing both physical and mental well-being.
In summary, I contend that sharing more stories of positive news can have a positive influence on societal morals and should therefore be given greater emphasis. While negative news remains pertinent in our lives, its gravity should be acknowledged to enable readers to fully appreciate the manifold benefits offered by the media.
