a means of expression so the work of Media is to let the individual express their
views. Media is used to spread the latest change so the society come to know
about the changes and try to follow the going on or current trends. This way
Media make the society.

operates the way that it functions to Public awareness and thus helps the
society as in the advertisement of malaria that is social responsibility or the
awareness about the Polio in Radio or T.V aware the society.
To get
the justice, Media can be the powerful device. If something is going on wrong
in the society and people use Media, so they can get justice gathering all the
people as in the Delhi gang rape case. Whole nation was there with the victim’s
family. So the Media functioned well.

common men can have their own opinions and they can share it using the media.

as Beauty = fairness so this way media medium need to control on spreading this
kind of wrong messages. This may Mar the society

as well. The Money minded publicity harm the society. Misguiding over an issue
is possible with the use of media. Media creates the emotionless society
because of ruthless news every day. Propaganda for politics is also there.

function of media is to educate, to Entertain, to inform. Media suppose to
function in such a way that it makes the society by integrity and common good.
The society does get affected by Mass media as various types of mass media play
its role. For an example, if something is going on in the society, the work of
mass media is to let that truth reach to the masses. If the Mass media works
with the transparency, it can make the society by doing its work. At the same
time, if mass media function with prejudices, it can mar the society with its
bias behavior.
