Freedom of the Press - Definition, Measurement, and a Global Assessment

Image
  Freedom of the press is the provision to share an opinion, idea, value, and/or perspective with others without restrictions. This is an important concept to consider because in order for society to grow, you need assistance by words. Press is a form of speech and anyone with a voice deserves the space to speak freely. Freedom house released a 2019 report on media freedom being a downward spiral. The study lasted for five years and expanded over sixteen countries (Freedom House 2019). They rated each country on a scale from zero to four. Zero being the worst and four being the best. The article touched on different subjects such as implications of democratic governance and media freedom globally and achieving media dominance. Implications of democracy focused on floating transparency and the need to increase transparency with the public (Freedom House 2019).

Descriptive Representation in the News

Image
  Representation is everything. This earth is full of people from all walks of life. Cultures and languages that differ from region to region. I want to focus on two groups: the rich and the poor. Everyone might be different from different places but we all have in common the wealth gap. When you watch a video, pertaining to those who come from wealth, you see fancy cars and big houses. When you watch a video, pertaining to those who do not come from wealth, you see small houses and rarely any vehicles. Individuals walk or use old bikes to get around. No personal drivers. I want to make a point as it pertains to the difference in presentation to the world. On television Africa was depicted as this poor continent riddled with war and lack of food and water. You saw children starving and parents who were unable to make ends meet. No sign of wealth or development to grow the country. It's under-represented to the world. But what society has failed to realize is the strive Africa has m...
