Media Debate

Media Debate
I agree that "newspapers are more interested in selling newspapers than reporting news truthfully" as professionally  the news paper companies need to make money.To make money they need to sell a significant amount of copies,and to engage the consumers and make them interested in the paper.So therefore  they are able to twist a story and change the point of view to make it and interesting and  and sell newspaper.
