I think there is a lot media to get informations.So it`s so convenient.
ReplyDeleteAnd I usually use TV media.
by 浩唐(Tony)
There are many media in times.Although media can let us get more information from everywhere,but today,some of media,especially news media,like to report someone's privacy.I hope that these media can think about how feeling if they are the man who is tracked by them.Would they feel good?I consider the answer is not!

"When a dog bites a man,that is not news;but when a man bites a dog that is news."
ReplyDeleteI think it is correct.News is composed of 'new' and 's' literally,so it means "new" things that are only about interesting,exciting or unusual events.And it is possible to watch common things on TV. by Joe,儒弘
I don't agree that we have the right to know everything.Everyone has his privacy,and we don't have the authority to disturb someone's normal live.We should respect everyone's secrets.
ReplyDeleteAnnie,郁雯
Although everyone have the right of know, I don't agree that everyone can peep into privacy of other people.
ReplyDeleteWe should respect each other, and the world will become beautiful!
Scott,學佑
I think the society news is more reliable than celebraties news. The celebraties news contains too much self-judgement and exaggerate.
ReplyDeleteRobert,承緯
Can we say that because of the right to know, every things we want to know should not be hidden, even if it is someone's privacy and not important to us at all? The answer is obvious. But if one day, there is not any gossip in our media, maybe we will not want to touch TV or newspaper or something like that any more.
ReplyDeleteSteven 培寧
I don't think that we have the rights to know everything about celeberties because that's their own prvacy.They are public people and have to perform well to be our role-model but they still have to have their own space.Their privacy shall be protected because they have human rights,too.
ReplyDeleteSometimes,I don't believe in what the news media provides .Most of reports are magnified or arranged in advance not according to facts.
ReplyDeleteI think journalists have to write down what they had seen subjectedly instead of adding personal comments to one thing.
Sometimes,I think media is very convenient.Because we can get the news more easily.But I think the media should choose more important news to report and delete the meaningless things.
ReplyDeleteJustin 九洲
I don't agree that everyone have the right to know everything .many people may think that we must know everything about the famous , but they are human being . they are borned with the right of privacy . we don't like others to stare at us every moment. do they ?
ReplyDeletei think that publc have right to know some privacy which could damage mass.like corruption. at that time media become a tool to know what politicians do
ReplyDeleteKim.金國
Media is now everywhere in our daily lives. However, in other words, it's time for us to distinguish truths and lies. We must to learn that all things we get from media may not be totally right.
ReplyDeleteSometimes news media provides the latest news
ReplyDeletebut it is not always exactly correct.
I think we should learn critical thinking so that
we could get the news which will help us.
I don't agree that everyone have the right to know everything.I think everyone has the same rights,also celebraties.everyone will not like
ReplyDeleteopen their privacy in public
I think that Media is a tool for people to know everything. Although it sometimes has wrong message, most can that us to believe. The most important that we should decide things by ourselves.
ReplyDeleteI think news media is everywhere,and we can get imformation easily.However,not everything we heard or saw is true.We have to choose the imformation on ourown judgment.
ReplyDeleteI think it is not reasonable that everyone should know everything.Because everybody has rights to keep his or her personal secret.However news media has some advatages.One of them is that we can get the latest imformation.
ReplyDeletei think news media play a important role in our society.Because we could know the latest news.but not everything is truth we should distinguish by ourselves.
ReplyDeletejenny依純
I think that we don't deserve to know the privacy of celebrities. but media still play a important role in our life. It can tell us many things about knowledge and interesting events.
ReplyDeleteJenny怡家
News media are important to us.
ReplyDeleteBut we can't accept all of them,
we have to deside what is correct.
So we won't be cheat by news media.
韻兒
We all know how important about the News media. But when we adsorb the things that media gave us, do all of people think about how it can be trusted? I believe that most of us may just to know what media were telling about but to think deeper about the news which media reported. So be a "thinking people" when watching the news.
ReplyDelete長軒
Media is very common in our life.Although it give us news and knowledge,we do not need to accept all of them.We must to ascertain which is correct.

By Betty (Miss Chang's assitance)
Thanks for techonolgy,we can know and learn informations not just by reading. We can watch TV and surf Internet. Therefore,thereporters always want to report the things what people wnat to know. But do reporters have the privilege to know all detail, especially the privacy of celebrities? I don't think so, the reason why I think this follows: First,celebrities also are human, not different from nobady,they just have more reputation and power than our. Second,people not all want to know the privacy of somebody , like me. When I watch news,Ihate these news because I think they are boring and don't have any benefit for us.
ReplyDeleteMaybe some people said that knowing all details is media's vocation. But,when you become a somebody one day.Will you like to put your privacy in the spotlight?
By Richie (黃俊興)
Media could connat us with others countaries that we could immediately what happened in others countries . But some media were manipulate by their countries . As far as I am concered , it will cover the truth and what media wnat to tell us .
ReplyDeleteAs the techonolgy developed,information explosed,media has became more common but important.
ReplyDeleteJust like the air we breathed,we get media everywhere at everytime whether you want it or not!
We may get others privacy or lose our privacy as the information spreading.That is the most equiable thing and unfair thing.
Overall,media can be one essential resource just like air,or a kind of weapon can used by everyone!
By 陳恆燈
ReplyDeleteNews media,well,we always say that we have a right to know anything we should know.But who define this frointer of media that we can acquire or invade privacy of others.
ReplyDeleteIn fact,with technology of Internet and development of machine.And we have to think that how we can do and we shouldn't go to realize...
by 徐育雯
I think we don't have the right to coherent others' privacy life . We always protect ourselves from being hurt no mater our physical or mental but we usually influent or even hurt some people by talking their gossip .
ReplyDeleteSo next time we should think if we want to give someone comments. BY 黃潔倫
reponse to 純婷
ReplyDeleteyour word is right sruely.But we have to consider that the relationship of media and people's curiosity.Due to people's curiosity,the press write unhonst report so as to meet our need.
by 徐育雯(HSU YU-WEN)
I think we have right to something about celebrities,but not all.As a celebrity,his or her behavior might affect even the image of country.Although,we don't have right to know every things,however,celebrities have to notice their behavior.
ReplyDelete林詩芸 Sharon
I think reporters provide the informtion to us, and we shouid use the knowledge which we have learned to judge. Don`t blindly receive message from outside.
ReplyDeleteby 威宇
Response to Joe儒弘
ReplyDeleteI agree with what Joe say.Every news media always like to report something special,but they usually forget how embarrassed when someone who did something wrong was reported on the TV.News media should attach importance to some about people's health,security,or country economy,and so on.

Response to 冠緯
ReplyDeleteI agree what you say.
Privacy of everyone should be respect.
The feel that don't have any privacy is really bad.

ReplyDeleteAs far as I know, news media in Taiwan is not worth our full trust, yet. You can see so many misleading (they just choose any way they want to describe a fact) information However, we just can’t ignore them. Without them, we are blind to the world. So we should legislate more laws to force the news media to tell us the “FACT” only, instead of many emotional descriptions and exaggeration.
ReplyDeleteEric Hou 侯力中
respond to 陳威宇
ReplyDeleteI think we should force the media to behave themselves instead of asking the audience to rely on their own judgment. Not all audience is wise enough to tell the difference between their own opinions and the opinions from the media. They will just take whatever they got from television/ friends/ neighborhood and accept it in his way.
By Eric Hou 侯力中
News media
ReplyDeleteNews media is everywhere and serves many different functions news media provid many important information we need ,but there are also many information that in purpose of enterment people who is instersting in that .Iincluding,newspaper andmagazines.Many journalists who want to let more people to read their report ,begin to dig in famous people’s privacy ,and then,they find that it was very useful.Therefore,what it was before made what it is today.
Second,do we know that every information which is reported on the media is ture?Many journalist report the news just base on the photographis ,what they saw is not always what they think .However,they just report what they though on the media .Therefore ,many people got harm .
As consumers of news we must know how to select the right information that on the news and think critically about the news.So that it should always be put under close scrutiny.I think that the mediahas no right to dig in the privacy of people.
We have to protect there human right.

Response to Richie (黃俊興)
ReplyDeleteI agree with Richie's inference. Although the technology is very advanced now,most reporters do not care about the privacy of other people at all.To judge celebrities's or the people who be reported's feelings by ourselves.To sum up,not only the reporter but also all of us should learn to respect the privacy of everyone.
BY Annie陳郁雯
Response to 笠晏
ReplyDeleteI agree with you very much. But it is pretty difficult to change public's like. What news provide is what most people want to get.
Response to 冠緯
ReplyDeleteEveryone knows that human beings have the basic human rights which can't be invaded by others.Yet,why does the "gossip news" exist in public?Why does some reporters like to peep?They take a risk to expose celebrities'secrets for sacrificing the public's needs,for appealing many spectators and for making more money.So it is the point of problems between right of privacy and freedom of the press that people desire for knowing more gossips about politicians ,singer or popular people in pubic.
BY Joe 陳儒弘
I think we should not invade ohter people's privacy
ReplyDeletealthough they are celeberities or the public. Everynoe has the basic right of privacy and we have to protect it not only for ourselives but also for others.In my opinion, we do not have to know everything about those famous peoplo.

ReplyDeleteI agree with you. If I was the man who was tracked, I could become insane. Because I don't like that people stare at me all the time.

I think people doesn't have the right to invade others privacy. Celerbrities are humans too. They have human rights too. Protecting their own privacy are their right.
ReplyDelete土木一A蘇俊霖
Although we can acqire many knowledge from the media,it also provide wrong message for us.I think we should learn to distinguish what is wrong and right from the media.

ReplyDeleteI agree with you. we didnt want others to know our privacy.so people doesnt have right to invade others privacy.
依純
When a famous person dies, does the public have a right to all the details?
ReplyDeleteI think public haven`t a right to all the details.After all,everyone has himself right of privacy.The reporter can`t report all the things.we show respect died.
- It was easier to be a reporter in "the old days." Do you agree? Why/Why not?
No,I don`t agree.Because reporter should distinguish what can report ,and what can`t.
The reporter can`t report unture messiage.
So,Be a good reporter is hard.
