This largely depends on the level of professionalism present in the mass media of a country and the level of technological advancement.

Third World Countries or developing Countries still have crippling media or press compared to first world countries who have the technology to reach the world and have so much invested in the press of their countries.

From the country I'm from, people hardly watch the local television or listen to the local news because they as well international media only portray the negative aspects of the country because of the doctrine of Bad news sells.

The problem highlighted above was one of the reasons the non aligned movement called for a New World Information and Communication Order which suffered big defeat as the United States kicked big time against it on the basis that it would halt the free flow of information and that the Non Aligned Movement leaders want to use it as a disguise to have control of the press.

With the natural death of the NWICO, the imbalance in information flow is still evident as the dichotomy between information has created two classes of Nations, the information super rich and the information abject poor.

The country where I'm from can be regarded as information abject poor owing to the facts that the media is run by profit oriented business men who would gladly sacrifice objectivity at the alter of bias and send out negative information because it sells faster than positive ones.

However, despite the many bad eggs, there are few media houses who stands out when it comes to objectivity and professionalism. These media houses serves as our glimmer of hope that we can get undiluted and unbiased information without interference.

Conclusively, I wouldn't say I can depend on the media of my country for positive information at this point in time but in the near future it might be possible.
