News networks have to respect the audiences' minds.

By Mariam Yousef 



Octavia Nasser during the session 

     Octavia Nasser, the founder of Bridge Media Counseling company in the USA, said that the news networks should respect the audiences' minds by giving them trustful news. She added that journalists should put in their mind that the watchers are clever enough to know if the particular videos or pictures are from the right places or not. Therefore, they should make sure about the credibility of the news sources they deal with.


       Nasser pointed that journalists have to be sure about the news sources before publishing the news especially if they contain pictures or videos. She suggested the news networks should hire professional teams to be responsible of insuring the credibility of the videos and the pictures that came from the news sources.

      That was Nassers answer during the Arab Media Forum 2011 when the moderator of the session  Talib Kanaan asked her about the news networks' credibility.
