Is the dominance of a few news organisations a good thing or bad thing?
1. I believe this to be a bad thing as too many organisations could cause a mix up and confusion in the information provided to the public. This is because they are all getting different information and this can be portrayed in different ways through too many organisations. An example of this is the Andy Carroll signing. All the different news stations came up with different stories of how much he was allegedly being signed for and this confuses the audience and gives them less accurate stories.
2. How is the information being presented and why?
The information is provided in many different ways using the latest technologies. An example of this is the Royal wedding. The coverage of this wedding and its news will be broadcast using many different technologies. For example, television news stations, newspapers and internet. This is done so they can cover as many different audience types as possible. For example, people less fortunate may not be able to access a computer or television but they could still read about it in a newspaper/magazine.
3. Do you think it's a biased view?
I believe that it is biased. For example, with the Royal wedding the BBC portray it in a positive way as they have links with the government and the government are close to the Royal's. This can mean that they are publishing false stories just because they feel they have to portray the wedding in a positive manner and therefore this makes it biased.
