The picture which took the media by storm, the graphic of a 3Yr old Syrian boy is now one of the most important topics in discussion. This photograph quickly spread around the world, prompting an international response. The picture was of a Syrian young boy named ‘Aylan Kurdi’ who was in the headlines around the world, was found dead on a beach in Bordun, Turkey.

This was the picture which went viral all through the media and most of them gave pessimistic remarks. While some of them shared using social media others tried to inspect this picture and found the facet of it. Some of 
the media organisations published it with a warning note.

This picture was discussed the most and what came to light is not only the mystery behind it but also revealed the massacre taking place in Syria which most of us ever had a clear idea about.While some of them crosschecked and found out the specifics others just went ahead sharing it. 

But the question arises on whether media should publish such kind of graphics or not?! Is what being discussed. But the reality is that this picture can make one emotional, and the concept of sensationalism of media is also outspoken. But it is also important to note that this photograph has made us aware on the brutality taking place in and around Syria and stand up against such false groups who slaughter people to death in the name of religion.
