Means Karl marx was anti media and criticized the role of corporate media. he said that media is owned and governed by the rich people. It happens both on local and global level. So,what i get from this question is that the media set the agendas during the flood campaign and showed which incorporated their benefit. the social responsibility was replaced by the benefit of their organizations. All the rating games and making of false stories was the media agenda during flood. Then the other part caters the social responsibility of media. Like, how media has to behave and play its role during the bad times and what role it can play for the betterment of the society. I think its a comparison between what "media did and what it was supposed to do" .
exactly, but even then it's an upset..........the statement can be justified if one knows the role of TV channels during floods, but even then a little reference of karl marx theory was required to mention, anyhow an unusual question,,,,,,name of karl marx in journalism, interesting
