What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or in the holy name of liberty or democracy? - Mahatma Gandhi Democracy is described as the government by the people, for the people or it is considered to be the rule of the people through their elected representatives. The democracy is balanced by the three pillars of Democracy namely The Executive, The Legislative and The Judiciary but now in this era Democracy is lined towards the fourth pillar that is Media. The main purpose of the media is to provide the accurate news to all types of views in front of people but the truth is not always shown by the media which to people suffers and at last it losses democracy. The media has been receiving number of contracts involving the shares transfer between the media and non media companies and which results to show the disguised news, this can be termed as the paid news syndrome.
