Media’s influence becomes problematic when it monopolizes public opinion, often

manipulating emotions and behaviors. Social media platforms use algorithms to prioritize

engaging content, which frequently sensationalizes or polarizes topics. Furthermore, it can

be challenging for disadvantaged people to participate in this industry because being a well-

known influencer frequently necessitates large investments in equipment like high-

resolution cameras and sophisticated audio settings.

In conclusion, even if the media has transformed communication and offered opportunities

for personal development, its overbearing impact on public opinion endangers people's

health as well as the peace in society. People must critically assess the information they

consume, and lawmakers must enact laws that encourage accountability and openness in

media operations. We can only maximize the positive effects of media while reducing its

harmful ones by tackling these issues.
