Here
are some of the reasons why we believe in it.
Despite being a country where more than half
of the population lives in the villages, our newspapers & news channels
surprisingly have little news coverage of them or for them. Is this because
this important segment is not buying newspapers or rather the products which
appear in the newspaper? We of course
agree and do not say that rural news is the only kind of news to be covered.
Yet we do firmly believe in a society where everybody has a role in the
functioning and happenings of the society, the media has this additional
responsibility; which is missing.
With
the boom in the media and rise in the number of newspapers, we seem to be
running out of quality stories happening around town and ideas about making a
change in the existing format of providing news & putting views in the
world around us.
So
we, Media students & Young people understood our responsibility towards the
society. And that’s why we have chosen this as our venture idea.
Whatever
social change we think about in the media is all thanks to our awareness about
the impact of the media. We are sure any awareness brought about in media
students will result in more responsible media persons, in the future. And it
is this simple fact, that if one media person is socially aware, he can bring
the social change among a large number of people in society.
Another
tendency generally seen in society, is just talking about the media. Everyone
believes that media is going the wrong way; but no one does anything about it.
So the sense of belongingness and the power to react need to develop. And as
soon that develops, the media will be inclined towards social change.
