🟡 How Can We Expect Fair Coverage in Media?
✅ 1. By Ensuring Media Independence:
Media must be free from political, corporate, and ideological pressures. Independent journalism allows truth to come out without fear or favor.
✅ 2. By Demanding Transparency:
Citizens have the right to know who owns, funds, and controls the media they consume. Transparency builds trust and accountability.
✅ 3. By Promoting Ethical Journalism:
Reporters must follow principles of accuracy, balance, and responsibility — not rush for TRPs or sensationalism.
✅ 4. By Supporting Local & Independent Media:
Grassroots journalism often tells the stories mainstream channels ignore. We must uplift these voices for fairer, broader coverage.
✅ 5. By Being Informed Citizens:
When the public knows their rights and questions bias, media becomes more careful and accountable.
✅ 6. By Strengthening Institutions like BMA:
Platforms like Bharat Media Association create checks, offer support to ethical journalists, and stand up for press freedom.
📢 Fair coverage isn’t just a demand from the media — it’s a collective responsibility. When media is free, society is strong.
