The media should not report crimes in detail. To what extent do you agree?
The issue of whether the media shoul d report crimes in detail, in my view, it is not about amout of crimes are reported, but about whether these crimes are positive or negative influence on individuals. I tend to agree that it will bring an excessive amount of negative effects on audience. There are three main reasons as follows.
First, amount of crimes are reported on tel evision will make individuals fear for their safety. If peopl e suppose that there are l ots of dangerous around with them, they will live on the society which can not be trusted by each other, also, their presure will increase which is not necessary.
Second, it is no doubt that crimes are reported on tel evision will bring negativbe influence on audiences, especialy, most of which are those not meant to be viewed by the chil d’s age group. Most of the formative years of a chil d may imtate the criminal acts. Since they cannot regonise the acts that are good or bad.
Third, with the help of technology, criminal acts become more and more smart. If the media report crimes in detail, peopl e who make a criminal plan will avoid the same
mistakes. A smart criminal act is a big chall enge for the officers. It is no extravagant to said that the rate of crime will happen highly. A l ot of crimes which are reported in detail will be imitated. Even smarter than before.
Among all of the above, the media shoul d not report crimes in detail. People shoul d be given proper guidence about the crimes by media, and not just only report the criminal acts.。
