常見錯誤

❌The news medias are reporting the story.
✅The news media are reporting the story.
💡'media' is already the plural of 'medium'; it does not take an -s ending when used as a collective noun.
❌I read it on the news media.
✅I read it in the news media.' or 'I saw it on the news.
💡'on the news media' is not idiomatic; use 'in the news media' for the general concept, or 'on the news' for a specific broadcast.
