Abstract

This study finds out awareness among people about ‘Paid News’. How paid news syndrome is misguiding people and keeping them away from the truth. To examine it, we have conducted a sample survey of journalism students and tried to findout how much aware they are about paid news syndrome. We have also tried to find out their view about paid news syndrome. As a result of this survey, we found that people are a little bit aware of this syndrome and they do feel that they are not getting appropriate news due to paid news syndrome.
