Myths and Heroes
We can wonder if the term hero is corectly used by medias ?
Intro:
I will present you diferent people called "hero" by medias and see if it's really correctly use.
I-
Article published in daily news -> homesless man hailed as hero.
Explaination: Found bag on the ground with 40 000$ and the man give it to the police and thanks to honesty the bag go back to the man who lost it
So a fundraising was created and they had more than 50 000$ to give to the homeless
in title editor we see that is hire as a hero but I think is just honest and every body have to be honest is just something normal.
But he is a very good person and we have to take exemple of him.
II-
Neils amonstrong cyclist 7 win at tour de france
before he was accused of cheating we was hired as hero by medias.
so same as before this man is just professional in sport and medias hired to speedly him as hero.
we see 2 doc prove that the media don't know how to use the term hero.
III-
here the term is not exagerated
=>article->NY times -> pilots of plane avoid the worst by avoiding building .
His action save a lot of life. He avoid desaster and crash thanks to his capacity.
i think he is a real hero. bc save life.
Conclusion:
Often medias use term "hero" for people who do good action. But I think it's exagerated because it's just a good action and it's normal and not every good action are show like hero.
They just model. So media don't use correctly "hero"? They use it just to boost there audience.
