Answer and Explanation:

The role of the media is to present any and all violations of human rights, anywhere in the world, in an impartial, non-partisan and complete manner, without presenting prejudice or deception. In other words, the media has an obligation and responsibility to present the way human rights are being handled, in a completely truthful way, allowing the population to know what is happening and to be able to initiate resources to combat any violation of those rights.
