How
to consume media? Or How to streamline media - Guidelines
1. Unsubscribe the newspaper that is not
contributing to the society. Newspapers
that not contributing socially include newspapers that adopt one or more of pseudo
secular, atheistic, and liberal editorial policies. Many of these newspapers
publish sensual and sensational content.
Most of the mainstream newspapers fall in this category. Therefore, the task is to identify relatively
better one. Apply the same rule for periodicals and any media that you pay
money.
2. Do not share URLs from the media sources that
you do not want to subscribe. Most of
online news providers such as google, syndicate news from sources that are
biased. Take little more effort to find URLs
from a better media sources.
3. Do not share or use negative news, images
from trouble making news sources. Do not protest actions of troublemakers among
media professionals. Share positive news
– preferably from good media sources. If required, generate content on your own
about negative news items. Focus on actions/suggestions towards
improvement. Avoid mere analysis of
tragedy, sorrowful events from socially damaging news sources.
4.
Do not distinguish between mainstream media and other media sources. Let good media sources replace mainstream
media if this is not already the case. Distinguish between good journalists and
bad journalists. Every media channel has
both kinds of journalists. However, bad
channels have less number of good journalists and better media channels have
less number of bad journalists.
5. Do not mention negative media sources or
journalists by name. Avoid reading/watching/sharing/citing
them. When required, read them free
online for your use selectively. Do not
interact with them by posting comments on their site or writing letters. Instead, respond to them through your own
preferred channels.
