Round 1
sybauaizaFOR
Yes it has a had a good toll on society as well as the whole world . Media spreads awareness around the world and is the voice for many oppressed citizens.
FirstPrinciplesAGAINST
The other side seems to assume more information always makes things better, but that is what I doubt. A lot of media just piles on fear and outrage, and people end up more divided than informed. I cannot really prove it, but that is my gut feeling.
Round 2
sybauaizaFOR
Media is a way for u to attain knowledge and all this information is necessary for u to speak up for ur rights and to spread awareness . Back then people were silenced and no would be hinted im the slightest and all the corporation, institutes and the government would work in secrecy in closed doors so media has an advantage to the new world and society . Without it we would have been uniformed about most of the tactics they would be playing
FirstPrinciplesAGAINST
My opponent makes a fair point about awareness and giving people a voice, I can see that. Still, my worry is that the same media often turns everything into outrage and fear, so people just get more divided. I am not sure how to argue it better, but that gut feeling stays.
Round 3
sybauaizaFOR
Division in the people happened often before media existed. What media gives people is a platform to fight their rights for and demand justice .
FirstPrinciplesAGAINST
My opponent is right that media can expose secrets, and I admit that matters. But my gut says it still mostly feeds fear and outrage, so people end up shouting past each other instead of understanding. I cannot really back that up better.
