				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Newspaper, a popular and favourite medium in mass communication system could have not found any considerable way so far, as to run comfortably in future. Economic downturn has been claimed to be the significant cause of such miserable condition as we see them presently. It is true, no one can’t deny that the economic recession that has been emerged globally, and has brought a severe captivity for the  major sound entrepreneurs in this arena  fiscally. Many big players in the market who once didn’t have care for incurring millons of dollar expanses in the head of ‘Ads’,now they have been fighting for subtle  existence and breathing very slowly with hopelessly  indeed.</p>
<p>Our point of view is not to search what  the exact fact is,  behind the existing economic slow down. We can say only what  about is, that the print medium as a whole, (newpapers,magazines, periodicals) have been passing through a pitiable situation stubornly. The indomitable nagative affect , in the true sense,that has to face by the major  newspaper organization is what to cope up with  its extensive etablihment cost in huge amount as compared to other print medium like magazine,periodicals etc. It is evident, that, a handsful revenue from  large quantity of advertisements that the newspapers were enjoying earlier, has come out to be shortend or be curtailed significantly. This shortfall in advertisement – might  be an important cause of such drought in newspaper industry-but not be the one and  only.  I sniff another more causes could be there ! Today, in our fasterer life-style, we intake our required inforations and entertainments largely from the electronic media that can provide instantly what we demaqnd for. We have no such wastable time as well as patience to go with any further lengthy process of enjoying the same outcome from other sources or means. Time factor, has compelled the consumer audience to do so. Whenever, a very good alternative way is available as open to all, then why should look for another delayed one? The major portion of media audience today, have been exhibiting their greater exposure in electronic medium particularly in audio-visual medium. Such audience are being kept satisfied by the  television medium duly.The keen ‘Advertisers’ are well known and aware  of this- and pay their emphatic attention towards the electronic medium predominantly. The sponsors all, want to pay for their ads’ only to what could be disseminated widely,instantly and repeatedly. These advantages all at a time could be handled by the television medium only. It is quietly  natural-best outcome would be rewarded highly.Television today, have been enjoying the sweet fruits of Ads.   It is also undenieable that the pictorial presentation has a greater appeal and attraction to the audience as compared to other medium.It is futile to say,that ‘television’can  enjoy the maximum advantages in this regard as it has greater command on the audience for its distinguishedcharacteristics.Televiion today, can easily and grab the lion’s share of launchable advertisements in the market.So why, the they could also be called ‘wealthy medium’definitely, as compared to other medium. Beside this, the  internet publishers are fetching a considerably revenues from launchable advts for their pages well. While newspapers have been confronting toughest competition in this hurdle.A certain amount of advertisements that were going to newspapers,are now entering  in the courtyard of the online news publishers. It is a significant matter indeed ! It is studies well, that the electronicmedium  have greater impact value than print medium. It has wider range of audience which can transcend across the country even internationally. So, sponsors’interest or emphasis naturally would remain stick to the electronic medium vehemently. The advertisers are payingduly  high reward for the best outcome. One point more to be taken to the account is,at the prime time of the television programme of any channel can accumulate the highest number of viewers who obviously go with by and large advertisements presented intermittently. Soch  greater impact never could be expected at a time from other medium.</p>
<p>Newspapers particularly, have been residing presently at the declining position in such situation evolved due to economic downturn globally. Even now, newspapers are quite unable to battle with online publishing entrepreneurs also. If online publishing sector go ahead deliberately in organizing manner in future,it is believed that the greater ‘ fiscal success’ would shake hands with online publishers by replacing the newspapers boost significantly.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Mass media initiate demand and needs for the society by providing different sources in trems of valuable informations and messages or contents. Such messages from the mass media helps to evolve a viable environment for the members of the society as they could think  and judge in better manner on any vital issue that sustains turmoils and anarchy in the society.  Mass media try to co-ordinate the society people of different religion, caste education, professiona as well as economic and cultural group, that encourages them as well, and  motivate to go side by side unitedly and strengthfully. Mass media call the major numbers of the people of the  society into particicipation, with the needful issue or any acute problem  appearing in the society predominantly, with a view to finding a  possible solution or way. It is seen that we get confused of the evolved problem and remain sometime as undone or unsolved. We oftenly fail to perform or overcome such problem in organized manner. Mass media can accord our disintegration and reunite anykinds of disruptive or malice communal relationship if prevails within the society,  by applying their ‘power of influence’through the transmission of various messages and effective presenrations, as to control the restless situation  very keenly and competently as well. Moreover, during natural disasters like earthquake,flood,draught and femine and others, mass media keep a close look over the matter as to organize the different measures taken in this regard, by the state power. Mass media try to initiate and maintain a harmonious relationship among the administration and the local delegates, clubs, ngos’ and other society members with a view to achieving better result through proper utilization, of the resources available in hand. Mass media could appear as to be most effective organizer in the society through their multifarious abilities like power of persuation ,presentation  advocacy by means of which, unifying as well as motivating the society members,can  achieve the required goal for the society.</p>
<p>As the mass media deserve a social respect and dignity as well , they should hold good it by utilizing their power of  influence, for the benefit of the society with a view to uplifting the standard of living of human life both physically and mentally. Ethically standardized presentations would require from the media organizations as to develop and retain the basic characteristics (like ideals and morality, sympathy, co-operation to other etc) of human beings which have been going to be extincted day by day. In the environment of crazy and flooded  mass consumerism, the nature of mankind  have  significantly been affected. The extensive exposure of allurable  products that oftenly induce and mislead human beings in obtaining the same irrespective of any proper judgement or assessment at all. Human beings today, fail to assess or judge on their cpacities in securing such expensive products for their use. Mass media have been acting as stimulant in this respect of mass consumerism diffusion and impulsing the society people drastically towards more to happen so. On the way of publishing contents for the consumer audience, the media have been  establishing themselves as keen and shrewed agents for the big corporate houses. Today, we can not deny, that the big corporate houses want what,, is provided by the deflected as well as deviated media as to earn more revenues.The major presented contents involve Vulgurity and obscenity extensively which is not desirable. Earning more money always, does not necessarily mean ‘surrender of own existence and values’ that the present media usually do  The mass media would require to think about their practices of such ‘humbuggery’, although trying to retain the dignified position in our society. The dealings of mass media, should never be concentrated towards earning money only.They are not business concern only, but at the sametime they are the institution for rendering education,developmental thoughts and ideas,focus on new horizon for new achievement for the society people also. They should never forget, that an ‘interdependency’ relationship is still existing between them and the society.The mass media should not treate our society as their ‘ Heavenly Market’ for generating revenue and  where they can do whatever they like with the power of influence that they possess.</p>
<p>The most challenging days are waiting ahead for present media, where new concept of journalism in diverse ways have been  emerging with handsful  new opportunities and offer  as to satisfy the needs of consumer audience. Many set-up in this regard have been on operation through online as to replace the conventional ‘ time consuming’ process of newpaper or other media organization. Such new ventures based on online activities would need lesser person engaged at least to serve the purpose of consumer audience pertainin a limited persons or group with specific  interested areas. Such chaleanging alternative media for communication through unilateral or bilateral efforts,could establish  their ventures robustly in near future.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today’s major newspapers available in the market, are presenting what their news stories to their favourite consumers in the same form and style and appearing as symmetrical significantly. It seems to be as all menus of different caterers, have been prepared from the same kitchen.So,naturally the taste and the flavour of the different news stories produced in the different brand names of big newspaper houses,comes to the audience or readers equally in the same get up nd style. The readers experience rarely the diversified tastes of news stories , although by turning the different pages of several newspapers. Perhaps, the readers think it “All have been looking eye to eye one another”.A got-up game like, isn’t it?The matter. of differentiation of so many news stories published in several newspapers, appear  to be a puzzle cotest to the readers mostly.<br />
Clearly, there is a hierarchy in the selection of news. Political news stories receive more prominent coverage than other say heroism. Disaster and crime stories receive special attention than any social or civic problems. The focus, it becomes clear, on events rather than issue and processes: on eminent or elite people rather than poor and marginalized: on exotic and novel rather than ordinary, the everyday and the usual. Evidently, certain ‘values’are at work in the way some happenings, some people, some nations, and some cities are considered newsworthy and others not so. Numerous happenings are not reported ;. a  strict selection process shifts out what is not newsworthy, and chooses to publish what is. From whose perspective and in terms of which value- system is this selection being made?</p>
<p>It appears that journalists in all newspapers think alike and work according to the same set of values. It is studied also that the journalists hunt for packs; by and large they have the similar sense of what makes for news. They do not want to change their trend usually they feel comfortable as well as secured too. Neither these journalists extend their views from their whirlpool existence  in different ways or angles nor they would have been allowed to move ahead innovatively by the newspaper organization. This approach of journalism can be designated as ‘pack journalism’. Further, how is that the journalists world over swear by that very ‘inverted pyramid structure’ when writing up the news? Such structure came into existence with the telegraph; the electronic media and the internet have a potential for experimenting with other format, but the journalist can not shed their old habits of thought and their old routines of working to deadlines. With round the clock news in news channels like CNN, BBC world and Star News and also in the internet, the traditional forms of journalism and the traditional  routines of journalists have taken a thorough beating.</p>
<p>The front page of any newspaper is so important one, that it  should carry most valuable and selective  news of the day of which it belongs to. The firstpage  must  cater such choosy items of news which are special and ditinguised as compared other stored news in the newsgatherings. It carries the outlook as well as mission of the publishing organization which reflects the  ‘news value’, and  ultimately generates passion and appeal within  the consumer readers. Here , a tasteful mind motivated by right attitude, is necessary to persue a very good presentable  page No: 1 for any news daily. Proper selection apper to be a hard task as to pick up absolute pertinent ones  from so many publishable events which can demand importance equally according to comparison.</p>
<p>To avoid the most challenging part of making a very good frontpage,newspaper organizations are adopting few tricky means or  ways. Thus the newspaper manufacturers have virtually been able to intercept this growing challenge in making an  appealing and attractive frontpage in sustainable manner. The news of sensitivity and of emotional nature, that can hit by virtue the sentiment of the people who have looked  over the frontpage at least once for a moment. The consumer readers naturally,fall headlong over the newspaper as being inflenced and induced as well by scarring and splendid news presentation as provided in the frontpage, and remain stick to such ‘Induction’.</p>
<p>In the ethical perspective, the news on fatel accident, severe disaster or natural calamity which are intrinsically shocking and mournful, or anyatrocious murder or rape which belongs to inhuman part of our life, should never be published with greater exposure and in  bold headline as accompanied by prominent photographs. In a word, it is inauthentic and provocative as well.Such carelessness is, stood as common practice of so many newspaper organizations as to sustain their commercial gain by extincting all morals and ethical values of journalism. In achieving just a commercial gain, newspapers of the present days,have been undergoing in the process of  such culpable ‘ humiliation of ethical codes’now and then. The present newspapers are in a mess of deceiting the consumer readers.</p>
<p>Newspapers, by and large today, seriously engged in publishing political news profoundly keeping side all other needful matters of the society by paying no such considerable attention or priority at all.How do they dare it as being most prestigious and conscious institutions and have to go ahed with the society where they belong to.The indulgence of present media concerns with political affairs looks like that they are somehow obligated or accountable to the political personalities somehow. It seems to be that no other event of the socity, could be so value added and acceptable to the consumers or users.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Message of any media concern should reach in understandable  manner to every segment of the society people. Message that represents any event,  that has closer relationship with the surrounding community in the sense of nearness, generates more interest and emphasis among the people of the respective community. Any news that covers the matter of the locality or commuty surrounding,inspires concerned people.Discussion and debate that gradually takes places within the community people. Diffusion of informations thus occurs that opens the door of thinking furthermore  about the society,section or community as well. There are various subjects either good or bad, lying in our community or society which could be assessed or redefined in the present scale in comparison to others across the world. All ‘good matters’ which could be optimized and enhanced furthermore, while the bad matters possibly be kept in controlled manner upto . desired lavel as well. Innovation that may  take place in our society or community and oftenlyit  remains unpublicized and needs diffusion, Innovation can be held, in the form of any new idea, new method, new technique,new product or service which could be used or utilized bitterly by the people of the  society or community in diffusive manner subsequently. Lack of communication makes any innovation in our community, to be  undistributable. It is seenthat,  the fruit or result of innovation remains unenjoyable to the larger portion of the community as well as the society people  Community media organizations can play the vital role in this regard in nurturing such ‘diffusion of innovation’ for the develioment of the community and the society as a whole.Community journalism is able to perform such committed activity of ‘diffusionof innovation’ by  keeping contact in diverse manner within the community first of all. Better communication system needs to be established and continued in sustained manner as to enhance the process of diffusion of innovation.</p>
<p>Community journalism will identify and highlight the resources available in the respective community and the proper utilization of those resources available, for greater use in the national perspective. Greater reward or value could be collected as to contribute to the nation building  from those explored resources even after endowing handsome value for it all satisfactorily.   Thus the enrichment restored in many undisclosed resource units,would appear as more worthfull as well as worthwhile to the community people. The journalists involved in this regard would have tiredless efforts in segregating those overlooked or undisclosed resources of the community, as to  pay back not only those apartly but also to impart greatly in nation building. For the development of any nation as the theorists say much of the development communication, I’d say community journalism might play a vital role in nation buildind and development through the development of community i.e.grass root as well as  the unit of any nation. Development of any unit like community would definitely contribute  finally to the fulfillment of greater objective of the nation. Such resources would need to be identified in the nick of time, by the die-hard efforts and ‘never-ending’ search ability of the journalist who would be involved in such dedicating works for community journalism.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Appropriate message or content is necessary for publishing or presenting in anynews making concern. In this regard, neither a reporting journalist nor any news concern can surpass this unspecified responsibility. Today’s major messages are encroached by scare emotional,atrocous and nude facts of events extensively. From such dopped messages ,a quick response or reaction can be earned from the public. The news concern and the presenter, who are involved in such practices, will count their success definitely. Someother  may appreciate and applaud this impact, as the  excellancy ofnews concern.But I must sniff such ‘ hue and cry’ generated within he public, as negative impact ofrespective news organization. Indeed, any message created for any desired event as to make any news for the  publication, should not be catered as insulated by scare,emotion,atrocity and nudity profoundly. Yes those are definitely the undetachable parts of the event and must be included moderately. Not so sharp and bitteringly. Presentation of the same, should be done very carefully and in controlled manner without trying to win  the whole game so easily and cheaply.  Present newspapers including other involving news organizations, are following this tricky and undesirable practice profoundly, as  to stay alive in such  harder competition by shattering all moral oblications. The Newspaper and the other news media, have been cultivating what? I seem,they are manufacturing incontrollable attitudes within the public which could burst anytime prufesely.The  news-media have been framing as well as  fertilisingsuch devastating public attitudes recklessly ,as they do remain always crazy and bursting for every moment. Is it complying with the principles and  objectivities of news making concern? The present news making concerns run in this way by producing stunt messages to their audience opportunistically.</p>
<p>The facts which are available from any event do require to be organized very carefully first of all. Putting the perfect words into the message as to unveil the exact meaning what is intended to say, is an art of message creation. The abilty of reporter to codify the message with the knowledge of perception filter of the audience, is an important condition of successful communication. A message must create an environment for judgement, seeking peaceful action from the audience. Emotion-laden and provocative message makes the public unruly and misunderstood.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Communication is an integral part of human lfe. So,any expression or presentation that represents the ‘Message’, is the central part or an important element of communication. Any communication can not be successful unless the ‘Message’is transmitted in meaningful manner completely to the purpose of intended audience or users.</p>
<p>Message should be disseminated fairly and unbiasedly,by avoiding any abusive or defamatory part in this connection, to the intended audience. Message should be created sacredly.Criticism does not mean to ‘hurt or harm’someone infront of the audience in indecent manner with bittering and ugly words or in the from of other types of   presentation. A word is ‘bullet’ like, and can not be taken back. Special care and attention should be taken while delivering any message before the audience. ‘Any message is stimulas’ which initiates reaction to the mind of audience  who consumes it. Message acts as a ‘vibrant’ instinctically in the mind of consumers.Message can shake the ‘belief’ of the human being as well. Any wrong or violent message can motivate anyone in the negative turn. Indeed,a message is the animated part of communication. Message can practically be disseminated lively in expressing any event. It retains power within its mode of expression, as woven, with ‘choosy and selective’words or in another forms like pictures,symbols etc in elegant manner.</p>
<p>Message must be very simple and unambiguous, which could easily be understandable as well as digestible to the audience. Selected and choosy  words included in the message must carry the nearest meaning to the audience as to reach the closest perception of the event. An event gets structurised spectacularly well with the good messaging abilty of any writer or the presenter. Here’s the successfulness of communication , can be achieved satisfactorily with the message nicely created.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We have talked  much more about the independence of journalism.The role of Journalists have been specified to ensure the steadfast idependence in the works of journalism. Journalists do try their best, in establishing the demarcated indepense while doing the works on behalf of their organization. Ethically the journalists do fight for the establishment and preservation of the same as they are asked for. The journalists believe “fighting for independence in journalism will make them more liberal and ensure their individual exercise of  independence greatly”. But practically their ‘ belief’ breaks and turns to be a wrong expectation.</p>
<p>With a view to presenting any matters of an event, a journalist collects whatever  materials to make it effective and strengthy as well, is not allowed to publish in comlete manner. The editor’s yardstick does not permit  any daring approaches in the presentation of the journalist. The editor wants to satisfy the need of the board of directors or the proprietor particularly. He remains ever alert, in preserving the commercial interests as well as the political. He intends to earn the political favour for his organization from the  state rulling party and the ‘good look’of the board of directors or owner of the organization at the same drive, the editor plays  a keen role in this respect by resisting the independence of journalist unduly. In persuing such objectful role ,the editorial wings are dedicatingly serving the purpose of the editor-in-chif.  It is allegedly done so! By prohibiting any journalist from expressing or presenting the truth elaboratingly which is of public interest and benefit,is unethical and infringsment of the principle of journalism.A general people’s interest has supressingly been avoided. Does it bring any harm to the society as a whole in disclosing that suppressed part of journalistic works? So,why such distortion of news, is being entertained? Why such a dubious role is forced to play through the committed journalist by humiliating his ideals and morals? It looks like ‘a gun is fired by shouldering on another innocent’.Isn’t it ?</p>
<p>Today ,independence of journalism carries a literary gravity only, and has been plundered by the same group or persons who are  involved with this greater part! A confliction or war remains within same species as held between mighty and weak in our society can be experienced in the arena of journalism profoundly. In the profession of journalism, a journalist can not transcend the editor’s barrier ethically or legally in unveiling an useful truth. A captivity has oftenly been conceded by the working journalists, staying with assured independence as guaranteed by the ehical codes of journalism.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A journalist writes what for the society that he observes.He presents whatever,is consumed by the society people which may consist of different classes, religions, categories and characteristics.So,while  presenting the report on any event,a journalist should be very careful and aware of his responsibilities in disseminating it towards the present sensible society. He must deliver such news as it serves a common purpose and fulfills major people’s interests as well.Any presentation or writing of a journalist, should never inflict or hit any part or group of our society regarding its belief, ideals,religion and  rituals anyway. The writing of journalist should be inspiring not only in keeping ‘social harmony’ but also in achieving social development at the sametime.</p>
<p>There are three basic responsibilities that are to be considered by any journalist. They are social, legal and professional.</p>
<p>Social Responsibiliy:-  Press reflects the social images or pictures of our society.The whole activities of the press imparts many events of our society with a view to present them later on, in decent manner to the society people. The intention behind such approaches and activities, is to make the society people tobe  well-informed as well as well-aware of round about happenings.So,every presentation of any journalist should be fair, balnce, truthful,inspiring and meeting the needs of common consumers of the news. Beside the usual events ,a journalist can highlight so many unsolved areas of the society by seeking solution for the same through the activity of journalism and must not overlook or avoid this great part of responsibility towards the society.The presentation of journalist should, initiate an environment of understanding within the society and shoul continue the same in sustained manner, in upholding it satisfactorily.Development of any society mostly, depending upon the imparting of creative and objectful journalistic activities.</p>
<p>Legal Responsibilty:-  While working as a journalist, one should be well conversant with all legal clutches as to avert the generation of complicacy as well as to keep the organization ‘troublefree’ any way. For this reason, a journalist must not intervene or inflict to  someone’s privacy or confidential matter until it is required to be brought to the notice of public. Any libellous or defamatory presentation taking with someone, any organization or group, is not permittable and should strictly be  avoided by the journalist. Libellous and defamatory writings or pictures, may earn instantly resounse or reply from the public with larger acceptance, but it is not pertinent as well as not complying with the standard of professionalism.</p>
<p>Professional Responsibility:-  A  journalist should have sincerity and commitment towards its profession. The news ofany event that is going to be published for the audience, should be delineated very clearly and faiely. A very good homework in this regard is essential for each and every event, and should be done by the journalist with a view to present the same to the audience confidently and satisfactorily.. The presentation must be truthful and unbiased above all and shall never bring any embarrassment or complicacy to the organization anyway in future. The objective of any journalist is to disseminate the correct and fair report in undistorted manner to the audience rather than crowding them intentially or allegedly to meet the present challenging situation.of the news world.. A news report should be created with greater care and responsibility as to maintain its degree of standard at higher level by avoiding anytype inclusion of undesireable and provocative part or portion.A journalist definitely,would require a high degree of professionalism in presenting any performances to the audience on behalf of any organization, and could be achieved so. by dint of die-hard efforts and unending searching abilty, and being respectful to the works ,understanding with the surroundings and accountability towards the society as well. A journalist must  follow  the newspaper editor’s deadlines.</p>
