Scandals-whether in politics, academia, or other areas-can be useful.
They focus our attention on problems in ways that no speaker or reformer ever could
Nowadays we can see the news increasing in amount, exaggerating in description, expanding in span. Everyone cannot get rid of the invading of the media into our daily life, and then it also bring some problems, one of which is advanced in today issue, that is scandal. Can a scandal be useful? Do they really call our attention far more than any speaker or reformer ever could? Were I left to offer my opinion, I would like to say that scandals in some realms really can do good to us and promote the advance of the society, while it cannot be denied that it also distract our attention from the main affair we should deal with, There are some factors that can support my viewpoint.
Scandals can bring some good effects on the development of society and our nation. Firstly, scandals can make people working in the politics, academia and such realms be vigilant of what they can do and what they cannot do. Everyone do not want to be involved in a scandal, for it can make our reputation diminish and do harm to our life, so do those public figures. They hope they can enjoy a tremendous popularity and are adored by poor and rich alike forever, or at least do not be entangled in a scandal, thus they will be unsleeping all the time for the sake of not committing a scandal, even more, they will do their best to make good deeds, and as a result, it will boost the development of society. For example, Nixon, the former president of American, committed a Watergate affair, which provoked a governmental upheaval and a widespread loss of the confidence of the government. In addition to the government upheaval, it also made him retire from his position and propelled the American government to do their best to restore their reputation in the hearts of American people. From then on, the political leaders behind him will be vigilant all the time. In this way, scandal can admonish those public figures indirectly on behalf of ordinary people.
For another thing, scandals can call our attentions to consider what is wrong with our society and supervise our government to take actions. In the age of intensive media coverage, those public figures cannot get rid of the ravelment with the media, covering all the aspects of our lives. Via the scandals, we will take a critical reasoning thinking and objectivity to analyze and make a fair and informed judgement, and then our government will take measures to deal with them. In short, it goes without saying that scandals can do many good effects to our life.
Admittedly, just as the saying goes that every coin has its two sides, scandals also can distract our attention from the main problems. Nowadays the media goes around us in every aspect of our life. As the profit-seeking entity, the media corporations want to make their maxim profits, and then they will cater to the minds of public via reporting something that can catch the eyebrows of the public without taking into consideration whether it is exaggerated or actual, for we public almost have a mind of prying into other's privacy and innermost secrets, preferring to hear misfortune and misdeeds of others, especially those public figures, far more than good deeds and accomplishments. Meanwhile, it is a pity to say that some public figures, such as some ever inglorious stars, are famous via some unwarrantable behaviors, which are also scandals. Thus, when we see the positive side of the scandal, we cannot ignore its negative aspect that exerts on our society.
Taking into account all the factors that have been discussed above, it is not difficult to say that we should see both positive and negative side of the scandals rightly and make the most use of them. |
