Sensational Media: How often does the media misportray information in news articles?

Subhead 1: Major news sources generally spend a lot of their time and resources over exaggerating points in stories that are irrelevant to current events or are invalid to the specific story.

Subhead 2: News stations often focus more on ratings and viewers than about finding the truth in a story.

The expert I will be interviewing is James Neustadt, Director of Communications and Community Relations at WSSC, and former member of Special Products Producer at NBC4. I have contacted him and plan on interviewing him next week. One question I will ask is," While at NBC4, did you ever see any distorted information for the sake of producing high ratings over valid information?"
