What is Propaganda :
Let me define for you what is propaganda. Information and ideas are not factually correct or exaggerated and are used to gain support for political parties, individuals or in a broader sense used to benefit a nation. propaganda is also used to defame a political party or a nation.
International media outlets :
In simple words, these are the news companies that provide news through the newspaper, electronic media, radio etc... simply by all means possible. these are the giant publication houses that control when what, how you gonna watch the news. they simply control the narrative which is they are going to set for viewers. some examples of media giants are The New York Times, The Hindu, The Guardian, TRT World, BBC News, Al Jazeera, RT World, Times of India etc...
Role of media :
Nowadays news channels work as a tool to project the soft power of a country other than news. mostly they project soft power of own country and sometimes of friendly countries. this is definitely not a bad thing but wait counties use media outlets to defame unfriendly countries and propagate their agenda across the world to get the political and economical benefit. most of these media outlets funded by their respective governments. news agencies don't care how they are destroying lives with their propaganda.
Who uses propaganda :
Propaganda through media is used by everyone from politicians to businessman and even by governments of countries. they used to set false narrative towards another side. India is a primary example that is facing propaganda of western and some Muslim countries like Pakistan and turkey. foreign media created a backward and dirty image of India just for its own benefit.
countries like China, Qatar, Turkey and western nations use for projecting their good images across the globe despite their failures. most of the African countries face the same problem as India.
MY OPINION :
1. People shouldn't believe in everything they saw on the internet.
2.People should try to know the story of another side in news and disputes.
3. People should stop following political parties blindly and started to stand against injustice.
4.people should question the government and authorities.
