NRSA member Worawit Sri-ananraksa said they must tackle the issue of the media and members of the public being used to create conflicts and national division. He said fast-changing technological advancements have brought about more effective communication channels that can reach the masses.
"Some groups of people can communicate to the masses and they do not have the same goal in presenting their information as ethical media have. They actually use the communication channels [social media] to create hatred in society,'' he said.
Media reform will not only cover mainstream or conventional media, but also any content presented by anyone that is deemed wrongful, he said.
