Explanation:

Much is said about the media's ability to influence society, especially the intervention on the political scene. The effect of the media is the holy grail of all media and political researchers. Of course, we know that the media has an effect on opinion formation, because almost all of the policy information voters receive in complex societies like ours comes from the media. However, the media also plays a key role in the responsibility of political leaders, by publicizing their actions that show the public how political leaders are being useful to society or how their political choices are being disastrous.

From this, the public will be able to choose leaders who deserve their support in other political positions and those who deserve ostracism and forgetfulness.
