雅思口语part3：（泰国考题）西方媒体的报道准确吗？

Do you think western media can report the news accurately?

The answer is negative.

On the other hand, the media in some countries with limited degree of freedom of the press are often the tools of political propaganda.
The bottom line is that modern global citizens are supposed to equip their mind with critical thinking and analytical ability.
We must bear in mind that the news stories coming out of any agencies are just opinions. They are not facts.
To find the truths, we need to form the picture using diversified sources.
