Satellites have enabled immediate reporting worldwide.A reporter can send the news to a network like CBS News and within seconds it can be all over the world.They send electronic reports that go straight into the newspaper or onto the TV screen.Reporters can now also transmit images through their mobile phones.Consequently, live, “on-the-spot” reporting has become the norm and TV viewers can get a much better idea of what a natural disaster, a conflict or an interesting scientific discovery is like.
In recent years, several changes have occurred in the ownership of news media.Networks owned by large companies and governments have become bigger and very powerful.These networks – such as BBC News 24–are hungry for news and have huge audiences.However, there can only be a limited number of such networks and their ownership is a big issue.
Some companies not only own TV and radio networks but newspaper groups as well.Who decides what news to publish and what sort of “spin” to put on it? Is it always objective? There are now “spin doctors” who manipulate the news,emphasising certain parts and not others – and as a result, much of it is not neutral.Therefore, the question of control of the media matters very much.In some cases, the media companies are more powerful than governments.They can even influence elections.So the question is – should they be controlled and if so, by whom?
