▶ Your Answer :
Some people think that the news media is a reliable source of unbiased information. However, I strongly disagree with the above statement for subsequent two reasons. First, they release information without fully verifying it. Second, sometimes media makes the news more dramatic for pursuing its own interests. First of all, the media does not check its information entirely. This is because there is no censorship by a reliable organization, so they just release information even if it is not true. I think this is a serious problem in our society because we can not distinguish which information is reliable. For example, when I was a senior, I had to write my essay for my graduation. So I was looking for the subject of my essay, and I finally found the subject on the newspaper. At that time, I did not have any doubt on that information so I started writing my essay. But a few days later, another media proved that the information was not true because that newspaper company got a financial assistant from a certain company to make fake information. I was depressed about that and I had to rewrite my entire essay in a short time. From my experience, we should not fully trust information from the news media. Second, sometimes media makes the news more dramatic for their revenues. This is because media is a company which is making a profit for them. And there are many competitors in the market. So if they want to make revenues, sometimes they exaggerate information so they get more attention from the audience. For example, one of the famous musicians was interviewed by a newspaper company. She said that she wanted to take a rest because of her child. But the newspaper company made an article like she did not want to sing anymore. People were shocked after reading the article because she was famous in our society. But after releasing the article, she explained the situation that she did not want to retire. Moreover she got a trauma after that incident. (conclude this paragraph maybe? 너무 뚝 끊긴 느낌이에요. Therefore~ 식으로 매듭을 지어주세요.) To sum up, the news media is not a reliable source of information because of exaggeration and no censorship. In this regard, I personally disagree that the news media is a reliable source of unbiased information.

첫번째 두번째가 다 비슷비슷해요.
censorship이 없기 때문에 과장된 정보가 나오는 거라고 해석하면 둘이 다를 바가 없습니다.
방향이 다른 reason을 찾으시면 좋을 것 같습니다!
수고하셨습니다. *^^*
