Throughout the world media is in influencing civilization and it is thus important to scrutinize the misinterpretation as well as injustice that may be associated with media cover. When we consume the various contents that is presented before us by the media, we are likely to form opinions and if the information is biased then there is high likelihood that the opinion will also be biased (Grossmann).<\/p>\n
