Corporation Media vs. Democracy Journalism




                   Corporation media is a system of mass media production, distribution, ownership, and funding. Corporations media is very similar to main steam media, which is a media system that does not serve the public interest. Democracy of journalism is a phenomenon where story readers rank news stories. Democratic journalism promotes news based on popular opinions of the majority. There are many similarities, and many differences. In corporation media, small cable channels, are owned, funded, and controlled by an interconnected network of large corporate conglomerates and international banking interests, which may manipulate and filter out news that does not fit their corporate agenda. According to http://www.newsmediacorporation.com/,"From our town to yours, News Media Corporation has been delivering community newspapers since 1975. With 10 printing plants and 34 newspaper offices in nine different states, our publications have been the leading news source for readers and advertisers all across America". Corporate media consist of newspapers, magazines, etc. Now democracy journalism is a little different. For example, Oscar Wilde, once stated, " By giving us the opinions of the uneducated, journalism keeps us in touch with the ignorance of the community ".  This quote by Oscar Wilde represents how media keeps people in contact with pretty much everyone. My overall opinion of the two is that these two help publish and promote information about people to keep in contact with them. Without media, there would be no way to really keep in contact with people and or to meet new people.
