In this applied research information was collected through the library method and interviews with a group of experts.

The study population includes the IRIB TV programs, among which the programs of the 16th week of 2018 have been studied as samples. Due to the results based which in 4 demographic-social classes out of the 6 studied classes, less media justice has been achieved, so media justice has been less observed in the national media broadcast schedule.
