Napoleon said:”Even a single newspaper is stronger than thousand of guns” The twentieth century is the dawn of media. Basically there are two types of media, Electronic Media and Print Media. Both have their own areas of exercise. Before the monopoly of electronic media, print media had the same monopoly which it has lost now. Newspapers had been around for a long time, but cannot deliver as powerful a message as photography, radio and film. With photography, people finally got to see what others across the world looked like. With few means of communication, everyone assumed the rest of the world was all the same. In Electronic Media there are different types like Television, Radio, VCR, Tape Recorder and the Internet. Media enjoys a tremendous power in modern world and its role in the dispensation of its duties largely remains admirable.
