family is famished and constrained to disappear from the face of the earth. World media and world organizations forget them after making their deaths headline on their periodicals. Nobody comes out to disburse food or wads of money. Only word jugglery is performed in the meetings and seminars. To keep oneself in the news and promote one's image as a humanitarian is on the background of the poverty to remain in the news.

Often poverty is ridiculed instead of redeemed. The poor are punned and are shown with the naked feet and deprived bodies.It is done in the name of good faith but there is not even simple faith except shenanigans. The UNO sometimes is trapped by the profiteers and pseudo-non governmental organizations whose sole aim is to grab and pile up money by hook or by crook. Such persons and organizations try their best to remain in limelight. Their aim is to pretend humanism .they want People and governments of the world to praise their work. They influence the common folk by their false image of humanitarianism. This is also one of the reasons that poverty becomes the important news.

Few organizations are making sincere efforts to work out plans for saving the starved people of the world. There are certain programs for the poor that include food for work, food for education and some others that facilitate the poor to get food in exchange of the work and education. Such programs require advertisement and publicity. This makes poverty an important news item.
To conclude it can be said that instinct of being publicized and remain in the news is the main cause that has made poverty a major news items.
