答案 Are the News Media Undergoing Negative Development? It is widely believed that the news media always misinterpret or exaggerate their findings. And even worse, when it comes to personal privacy, the news media have frequently come under fire. However, since the development of modern technology has provided the news media with more quick channels to transmit information, many people regard the news media not only as an information provider but also as a lifesaver, which contribute a lot to the development of society.

They propel the related departments to establish open complaint channels.

The news media can timely provide information about events happening around us or in other countries, which can help us in decision-making. In brief, the news media have become more influential in our daily life. They will develop in a positive way if the relationship between their regulation and freedom is balanced.
