... Chloë Morris "News always reflects the interests and assumptions of the powerful in society" How far do you agree? "News always reflects the interests and assumptions of the powerful in society" this statement is true in many ways, most of the news the public are exposed to is carefully chosen by owners, editors, journalists and the government - all powerful people. The views and morals they hold are therefore portrayed in our news, influencing our opinions and the way we act in society. The Glasgow University Media Group (G.U.M.G) carried out studies based on content analyses of television news, they feel that the 'powerful' have an influence over the media, as a result of this they are represented much better than the 'un-powerful' in the press. People with money and status have an effect on our news content and as a result of this they have an effect on our interests
