Media?

Hey there, I am doing a project for school, and I have no idea how to answer this question, or even where to start answering...

The question is: Discuss two examples from the media to show how the media supports a democratic society, and explain how society has benefited from these articles..

If anyone has any ideas or anything that can help me, the help would be greatly appreciated,

Thank you,
Matthew

Since when do you need to pass LO?


The Wits Great Debates are quite interesting: http://www.enca.com/elections-2014-s...s-great-debate

Apparently it's important to pass well or whatever, but it's an easy subject so why not do well?

Another good example would be the Public Prosecutor's Nkandla report, and going straight to the media to publish it before it was taken to parliament.

(PS. Kinda ironic that you asking for interpretation of a questions on an "easy subject"?)

It is ironic isn't it? The easy part is that this is the only thing that goes on my report for LO, as well as a sport mark.. Which you get 80% just for attending.. I have to do one task a term for this subject :)

Glad to see LO is still as important and integral to the education system as it was when I matriculated 5 years ago. Enjoy!
