The Freedom Of The Press Shall Not Be Infringed
|
|
-----------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
A free press is a vanguard to a free society. In a free country,
|
|
the press must be free to inform, and educate, the citizens about
|
|
the workings of the government, so that abuses may be stopped, and
|
|
good deeds may be applauded.
|
|
|
|
It is impossible for every citizen to, on their own, investigate
|
|
all the happenings in the world, so they must rely on the media to
|
|
investigate and report on the issues and events that will affect
|
|
the population at large.
|
|
|
|
Ideally, the media should be motivated solely by the desire to
|
|
report the events, as they happen and without bias, for the purpose
|
|
of ensuring that the public will be well informed. We have a free
|
|
press in America, but we do not have such an altruistic press. The
|
|
media is motivated by a variety of factors, and it seems that
|
|
keeping the public informed is the least important. Profit must
|
|
be, by far, the most important consideration. Print what sells,
|
|
televise what sells. Because of their desire to create huge
|
|
profits, the media has become highly competitive. Competition can
|
|
be a good thing but in this case, the public suffers. In the hopes
|
|
of getting a good lead on a story, the press is inclined to
|
|
cooperate, and grant favors, to anyone who offers information to
|
|
them. If a police department spokesman, for example, promises a
|
|
reporter an exclusive lead on a story, providing the reporter
|
|
refrains from releasing information the police don't want released,
|
|
well, it is nearly assured that the reporter will remain silent.
|
|
|
|
It sometimes happens that the media suffers from overly-good
|
|
intentions. They are inclined to crusade for causes that are
|
|
popular, whether or not they are well thought out. And the media
|
|
is completely unqualified to present most of the issues that it
|
|
covers. After all, they are reporters, photographers, writers,
|
|
personalities. They are not economists, scientists or engineers.
|
|
It is hard, if not impossible, to present an accurate view of a
|
|
situation, when the reporter really has no understanding of that
|
|
situation.
|
|
|
|
The media insists that they are "giving the people what they want."
|
|
How many of you want hour upon hour of O.J. Simpson coverage, on
|
|
a daily basis? Didn't think so. The media controls what is
|
|
available, and the public takes what it is offered. That makes the
|
|
public responsible, as well, for allowing the media to get away
|
|
with this.
|
|
|
|
It is broken, and badly in need of being fixed. The media will not fix
|
|
their own problems. It is unlikely that they even see that there is
|
|
a problem. We, the people, must become involved. We must monitor the
|
|
media, just as they are supposed to monitor the events that they report
|
|
on. We must educate ourselves, so that we can understand the issues
|
|
and events that the media reports. We must be vigilant, and speak
|
|
loudly whenever we find the media to be abusing, either maliciously or
|
|
thorough ignorance, their power. We must force them to report facts,
|
|
not agendas. We must be tireless, and undertake this task as though
|
|
our very liberty depends on it. For it does. Should we choose to allow
|
|
them to continue to spoon-feed us, then soon we will have no desire for
|
|
them to stop. Nor will we have the power that will enable us to make
|
|
them stop.
