The mass media play an important role in our lives. Newspapers, radio and especially television informs us about what is happening in this world and gives us great opportunities for education and entertainment. They also influence how we see the world and shape our views. Of course, not all newspapers and television programs report events objectively, but serious journalists try to be honest and provide us with reliable information. The world today is indeed full of dramatic events and most news releases bring bad news. But people are not interested in ordinary events. That is why so many articles and programs are devoted to natural disasters, accidents, and wars. The good news doesn't usually make headlines. The bad news is doing. Some people say that journalists are given too much freedom. They often invade people's privacy. They follow celebrities and print. Sensational stories about them, although they are not true or half true. The main source of news for millions of people is still television. People like television news because they can see everything with their own eyes. However, many people prefer the radio. They like to listen to him in the car or outdoors, or when they do something around the house. Newspapers do not respond to events as fast as television, but they usually provide us with additional information. Recently, the Internet has become another important source of information. Its main advantage is that the news appears on the screen as soon as something happens in real life, and you do not need to wait for the news on TV.
