Hi! I am hoping to add a couple new sections to this article so I compiled some ideas and sources and would love some feedback!

Democratic Media as an article is lacking a lot of information and sources. I hope to add reliable sources in order to make the article more comprehensive. I also hope to add some new sections to the article such as the evolution of democratic media, the practicality of democratic media, or criticisms of democratic media. By adding these new sources and sections I hope to remove the warning flag that pops up when you open the article.
