What is the media’s role in sharing information to the public?

Answer 1

The media's role is to gather information from as many sources available to them as possible and to share that information with the public (people, citizens). Governments, people, and other actors are the participants in a public event, and the media (journalists, news organizations, publishers, etc.) is essentially a third party observer that is there to record the events and present them to the public, how they choose to shape that information is of course up to them.

Answer 2

The media is responsible for dispersing information from the government and other sources to the general public. In essence, the media is the bridge between the government and its citizens, ensuring that citizens have access to information about politics and current events.
