4 D Media

One day, I came back home, and saw my mom dad watching a program on television which had drama action romance almost everything ,a formula , which makes shahrukh’s and Govinda’s movies a “super hit” at box office. I wonder is it some ‘K’ Kapoor daily soap or my mom dad actually watching a movie. I was shocked when I saw that it was one of India’s leading news channels “Breaking News “show. And this is what 4-D media is all about .

There was a time when a news paper was the only popular medium to know what is happening outside your home, society, city after that very few bothered to know whats happening in country etc. This was the scenario just 12-15 years back. I suppose this was the time when information and media was 2 – D. Then watching news on dedicated news channel was in thing. The enthusiasm of the reporters forced all of us to think that the world is changing and Media has the power to explore and bring the facts from any part of the world which would have gone unnoticed. We were fascinated by this new trend.

.”News presented with own views” with addition of drama and unnecessary action makes today’s 4 – D media” This is like “Buy 1 get 1 free Offer” there is one actual news and 1 news created on perception , imagination so on..and what we get is 4-D news… Wow….and ….i got something to write about.. and its on its way….

Good Concept of adding Dimensions to news, I guess you missed out on 3-D

1-D News Paper
2-D What happens is What you see
3-D Add Some Speculation & Opinions
4-D Come up with something that hasn't happened or will never ever happen
