Extract

"The 'content' of the newspapers is not fact about the world, but in a very general sense 'ideas'." Fowler (Roger Folwer - Language in the News - Routledge - 1991 - Pg.1)
In today's society it would be naïve to assume that the news we receive is unbiased. It is safe to say the facts are reported if someone is murdered, the story maybe covered in the news, but the placement of the piece, emotive language used, duration or any other factors involved would immediately inform
the audience to the merit of the story. In effect dictating to the viewer the version of reality 'they.,' the media/government want us, the audience to see. The factors that govern what is reported are news valves and as it is recognised that this code of conduct exists we can, I personally feel, say that the media can, and does, reflect the political agenda or climate.
The question of the news being created has been a topic of discussion since the dawn of media studies. There are several different political theories or traditions of thought.
