News Media:
Thesis: Sensationalism will not be encouraged.

There is freedom within the press. In my utopia, dealing with the media; freedom will only take you so far. Every time the world is facing an economic crisis, the media creates sensationalism within communities. Hollywood couples, environmental breakouts, and disease have all played a part in sensationalism, for example, Hurricane Katrina.
Though it was a very major physical and mental upset for the world, “Information or reports about recent events” had been shooting this story day after day, month after month as if it never stopped hitting.
The stability of this law will further improve the society because then people will may be able to look to the furture instead of living in the past. In this day and age, children have been exposed to too much sorrow and explicit content that showing the public the real truth behind the scenes should not hurt too much. An example of this would be war, to show people that war is not only honour and glory. It is a brutal and gory which many take pride, courage and patience to finish. In the perfect world of mine, I do not believe it is right for media to encourage news like this. Therefore, news will be broadcasted within one week. No further updates mean it is time to move on, on air.
