tabloidization of the news media

ı think tabloidization seems structural phenomena at first, but it plays a role changing the content of the news. so ı am opposite of the tabloidization. ı think one of the most obvious reason of this tabloidization is ,as the writer mention, competition between big media companies. one of the most characteristic of the current media industry is this. they may do everything for rating. they especially choose people who has tragic life story or something like that for their programs. or they politicize personal lives. and these programs gain what their producers want. people are influenced by them, even become addicted to them... producers think that -but TRT, NTC, CNBC-e may be excluded- it is better that little attention to politics and the economic related news but more to human interests and entertainment. as we talked for previous topic about media. we were mostly agree that. media should enlighten people, contributes something to them. but it doesn't seem easy with this tabloidiztions.

MEDIA: my relationship with media

what do ı watch on the television? this question is related to my perception about television. ı think there is no definite explanation or aim of the television such that it should educate the people or something like that. there are various types of channels and programs. everybody can find a program that is in his/her interest. ı choose television program according to my mood. they are films, music channels, documentaries, series, some of the discussion programs and programs that introduce us other parts of the world and other people' life( this may be called documentary, too). as you realized that, there are not limited, ı watch almost all types of programs but except some of them such that marriage programs, morning programs( it may be wrong,ı don' t know the actual word) and some contests. ı consume some of those programs such as contest or series to spend the time.(by the way television is used by people mostly to spend the time. because if they have got something to do they do not need to watch) but ı think documentaries are beneficial for me and also it is enjoyable if it is in my interests. for example ı like especially scientific documentaries. as we all know media has huge effect on human beings. ı think it is controversy that if it is harmful for people. in some cases it may be harmful. for instance, media expose people who is criminal of rape. it may be seen that media do this to warn people, ... but after that news, they say that he was punish for a very very short time that released. then, what is the role of media in here. this encourages people who can do the same. if it is not encouraging, it does not frighten them. because there is nothing that they will use at the end of. ı don't like media in terms of such cases. in contrast, media may enlighten society and bring new view points as we all know.

The plug in drug

ı agree with the writer that the family life has changed since the advent of the television. the situation is not like as the past now. many of the family has more than one television and the members of the family watch television(their favorite programs) separately. in addition to this, if they watch together, in the same room, they generally don't share their ideas much, only look at the screen. and people can't devote time to the other activities due to watching TV. for example what do family members do in the evening apart from watching the TV. the answer is very limited. and also children' creativeness diminish because they spend their most of the time in front of the television. but in contrary, TV is a beneficial. it contributes to humans life a lot.. we can say many things about that. but people exaggerate watching television. therefore, this problems occur. the time we devote TV and other things should be balanced.
