Television is the widest medium of communication that reaches the audience most effectively. It provides the pictorial evidence to the audience that provides the story's context and thus, enhances the impact on the viewers. Television indulges every stratum of society, be it literate or the peasants and thus, help them form an opinion about a particular issue. The images portray the level of intensity of the particular news and consequently leads to the desired outcomes as intended by the broadcaster. Yet sometimes, they over highlight an issue causing unnecessary protests from the people. We may conclude that Television has a very deep impact on the viewers, so, it has to be specific with the news they telecast.
