Did you know that most Americans obtain their news via television and the Internet? Recent research indicates that 41% of Americans prefer watching local news on television, while 37% prefer reading it online. 13% of Americans favour a printed newspaper, while 8% prefer radio. So, what is Positive Media Day and why should we avoid negative media? Here is everything you need to know about Positive Media Day’s history and significance.
HISTORY OF POSITIVE MEDIA DAY
A few decades ago, the media had the ability to educate people on both the good and the bad; don’t get us wrong, the media still has the ability to do so, but the media of today is regrettably filled with negativity and bad news. This has been shown to negatively influence us as well. Today’s media is heavily biassed towards negative events and depressing news, and it’s time to reverse the tide. Positive Media Day has been created to alter the norm of daily media consumption.
Every day, there is too much hatred, negativity, dread, violence, and attacking, and if this continues, people will believe that this is how the world will always be. Positive Media Day seeks to inspire and uplift you and your news channels by altering the mainstream media. It is predicated on the notion that if we can inject positivity into conventional media, we can alter the status quo and initiate a shift in the global mood.
People will be much happier, gentler, and more compassionate, and they will be more optimistic about the future if the media is more optimistic. Moreover, there is a great deal of astounding news in the world, which we wish to discover and share with others. Therefore, on Positive Media Day, let’s take a position together to raise awareness about the need for all news and media outlets to serve as a beacon of inspiration, positivity, and joy for the remainder of the year.
