The Dangers Of Media Sensationalism

Media trials have been increasingly prevalent in Nepal in recent years, impacting public opinion and court cases and sometimes implicating individuals. Sensationalism and speculative reporting are common features of media trials, which can have a significant impact on the legal system. There are serious worries about this phenomenon's effects on the justice system's fairness, which are frequently fuelled by sensationalism and the desire for breaking news. There has been a noticeable increase in high-profile cases in Nepal where public opinion has been significantly shaped by media trials.
