Twitter "Trending page" and its Influence

As we all know  Twitter is a famous American social networking service on which users post and interact with messages known as "tweets". It has a page which tells the user that this particular topic is trending in this particular region.
 


Today I will write about how this page can influence the users.

Media plays very a important role and has influence in virtually every aspect of our lives. ... It greatly affects our lives because media has the power to influence our thoughts. This influence is sometimes positive and sometimes negative.
 
First of all lets see
how something gets in this trending page.
If someone has a large following tweets something using a specific keyword or hashtag which attracts people from specific group or community they also use the same hashtag to discuss the topic and in a result it trends in twitter.And now the people in that region can see it on their desktops even if they dont belong to that specific group or community and as a result are influenced by this topic.

Now as I mentioned earlier that this influence is sometimes positive and sometimes negative.

Consider that there is a charity event or a singer has just dropped his new album or its about a football match.Its Okay that it trends and people get this kind of news but If someone is posting something violent, full of hatred then the things go worse.Like every one knows why Donald Trumps account is suspended.There is no  point taking steps after the loss,

 
Here are few suggestions
1 Only quantity  should not matter in trending a subject or topic.
2 Spam accounts must be banned
3 There should be a regular check on whether this account is being run by a robot or a human.

Thanks for reading. Kindly share the message!
