The news media, also known as the news industry has the important task of creating news. The construction of the news is based on a set of criteria, operations and instruments to choose from among countless facts and come out with a limited amount of news. It is based on the news-values that are criteria and operations used to define which events are significant and interesting to be transformed into news.
The point-of-view of news and the way reporters write the news in newsmagazines, commercials, and interviews headline is designed to grab interest and it is often displayed by using some sort of audio-visual equipment such as billboards and digital screens with LED lights like in Times Square. The news must be capable of producing an affective or emotional response in the recipients. Also the radio, television and the internet (blogs) are another form of news media.
