Why Media is negative about Bitcoin?

[cryptopolus]

I don't think its only about bitcoin. Just look around what news we have, and you can see most of them are negative. As the old saying goes: bad news are the good news.

[poptok1]

You must understand that the majority of the media is controlled by the same powers that control the western central banking system. -snip-

This sounds like something i want to believe.
Do you have any facts for what you are saying?
-snip-

If you want to believe it than I guess there is nothing that could stop you from doing just that
Nobody will provide you with evidence because there are none. Its mostly a guess or estimation of reality we are living in.
Over 100 years ago there was more than 80 news/media company worldwide (majority in the states). Today we have, like 6?
Massive conglomerates, owning entire sports teams and movie studios. Their stocks are "free" for everyone to buy.
It would be stupid not to assume, that super-rich family's are not owning some significant amount of those shares.
This however is a commercial secret, none of those conglomerates will ever expose their investors(I think its even against the law), and so shareholders can rule from behind the curtains. If you look at the background of the chairman's in major media-complex's, you can notice that almost all of them where at some point employed in the banking system(but that's not a prof). Simple image emerges and it is described in a form of a question, that is the tittle of this thread. A: It threatens their very existence.

Media does not reveal the truth nowadays.They just want to increase their viewers ratings and they are ready to go to any extent to achieve it.They just want to create hot topics by giving sensational news and have debates about it.They are never bothered about the ethics of journalism.They tried their best to hide the bitcoin news from getting in to mainstream.When bitcoin price grew high to reach $10,000,they had no other option than telecasting it.Also they are lobbied by big financial firms to telecast the news which suit their interests.

Whenever a government announces to regulate bitcoin or cryptocurrency or whenever BTC price is in downfall, most of the media start to warn everyone not purchase or invest in Bitcoins.

Hello everybody. I think that there may be a lot of answers. The first thing that comes to mind is that these press representatives themselves do not understand the Bitcoin theme, being a blind mouthpiece of state structures. It's no secret that the crypto world is starting to compete with today's banking system - what is a state without a centralized banking sector? You can say that this is the death of the state. A lot of states understand the inevitability of the crypto economy, so they are looking for ways to introduce bitcoin into their financial sector. And those states that will understand this first - will receive an additional, advanced tool that works for the benefit of society. The second reason why media space negatively speaks about bitcoin is a large percentage of ICOs that deceive their investors. All experts, in one voice, say - invest only the amount that you are ready to lose. And the third reason is that the decentralized bitcoin makes it possible on the Internet to pay for goods banned in the countries.
 One can say anything, anything to resist Bitcoin, one thing is clear: a currency has been created, the adjustment of which is almost impossible. And it is up to us to decide whether we will use it for good purposes.

In December it was all about how BTC was mooning because that was actually the news.There was lots of mainstream exposure.Lot of people are interested in crypto now.And now we’re in a bear market and they get their clocks and views from FUD.Media always against position in BTC i think that's why sometimes market will be falling down.Media is bad thing for crypto market platform i think.

The media have to make a news more sensational to make more money out of it,thats why they are adding more negativity about bitcoin if there is a regulation from the government.
The other reasons maybe the medias are owned by the whales so they can use it to manipulate the prices of the bitcoin by spreading negativity about it to the investors.

[spiritguardcharles]

Well,we should atleast increase the level of awareness regarding to the changes happening in bitcoin community or in the world of crypto as well as for it's value in the market.Maybe one of the reason why media exposing only the disadvantages of bitcoin is simply because they don't have any deep knowledge and understanding about bitcoin.Also,we should always keep in our mind that media manipulates the viewer to believe on what they want us to believe.Moreover, the information we received in some social media sites or even in television is limited and fabricated in which is favorable for those people behind this evil scheme

I dont know exactly what they want because they have different interest.
In my eye, they are as media work based on news, news is their profit so they will inform very quickly if they get news.

[Prodigan786]

It is clear strategy from traditional investors and bankers where they were giving very loss or near to nothing for peoples saving . So now money going to crypto currency where no body can control . Again this medias are funded by these bankers and investors.

[poiska7662]

Not all of the media, but most of them. It is also depends from its origin, some of the country btc is not yet fully accepted and regulated. There are some warnings was spead and there are some positive insights released.

That is the reality, very sad. Media is no longer neutral but often controlled by certain agencies/groups/governments for a purpose. And one of the goals we can see together is to prevent bitcoin from developing even better, they try to influence people that bitcoin is dangerous, etc.
So, we have to be really selective in choosing news sources. Do not be affected.

[Filthy1]

Why you ask because  the world has been run by corrupt Governments and banks. where they manipulate people and treat us like sheep for there AGENDA . Cryptocurrency takes it out from underneath them people like the Rothschild's etc that is a massive threat as they want to manipulate everyone with there Fiat,Goverment , Banks keep everyone in debt whilst  people suffer and the rich get richer. The Blockchain solves problems banks cant handle and gives control to the people. Now what there aim will be is to tarnish ,fud what ever it takes regulate crypto then centralize then turn around to the sheep and say look we have fixed the problems with crypto now we should all adapt  it and wipe there western society debts clean that they have made with there fiat. Remember this post and tell me in the furture I was right

[hinterland]

The main reason is they cannot control it, nor influence it in any major fashion. MSM that is, smaller journalists and online media have a different view on BTC.

The banks don't like it for similar reasons, plus in instances like Cyprus people avoided having the bank steal their money during a crisis.

[eagleman]

What is the reason for doing this?

It's their job to report everything that's happening and they are covering different issues so when something pops out, expect that they are there.

Do they intentionally do this so that even they can invest in Bitcoin and make some profit?

Yes they intentionally do it and together with it that's how they earn from those news. And sometimes there are people who wants themselves to be interviewed just to give their idea and they are paying these medias for it.

[TorbiK]

They earn money by spreading information that will attract a huge amount of people's interest. They do not care what to write about, if only a lot of people read it.

We should not be expecting the media to be a big friend of Bitcoin. Why? It has something to do with the fact that Bitcoin is now an investment vehicle and we know that it has many risks involved. The media is then playing as a warning agent...this is one role it loves to portray all the time as the buddy of the people or their captured market. We are already past the honeymoon stage with the media (where many of the reports are positive). We are already in the scrutiny stage (where many reports are negative). Almost new things have gone this way in connection with the media. Scrutiny stage is the stage that can last longer before things will stabilize and a fair treatment can be expected. Now, we should always understand that the media is a business too and they are always fighting for the attention they can get from their viewers hence they have the tendency to make things sensational. This is just part of the marketing techniques.

O dont think media is a negative sense to bitcoin. Its actually a way of spreading bitcoin knowledge and also the spread of good way of earning and way of payment. Good way of earning because bitcoin can help your financial status because of its different strategies or ways to earn here like trading,mining,gambling and investing. Good way of payment because bitcoin allowing us to send money or tokens to any kind of wallet just make it sure that it is trusted, the transaction using bitcoin is so fast and reliable.

[Amilhussin24]

Media is always black propaganda in for everyone, they work for money, and government pay them, who ever paid them, is with them, I mean they promote it very well, and Government paid them to give a negative news about bitcoin, and other cryptocurrency.

[budi691]

I think not all media, there are some media that preach positive about bitcoin. if in Indonesia there is CNN Indonesia and Detik.com. but some preach negative bitcoin about ransom demanded by irresponsible people. such as kidnappings and other crimes. but I personally still believe there are still many positive values of bitcoin.
