Where that media is outstandingly unsupportive or critical of the government, and where the government concerned is either very controlling or very insecure about its existence. For example, China and Iran are known to be quite strict about what can and cannot be said.

If it to decide a government without media or media without government?

Neither choice is desirable in the least. However, in the hypothetical example of media without government, there would be no way to maintain order. Armed groups would run rampant. They could run their own media, but there would be no way of knowing whether it was being accurate or even truthful. A government with no media would likely operate in total secret and act in repressive ways. However unpleasant that situation might be, at least there would be some level of order. Word-of-mouth communication would still be possible, although unreliable. Although the choice seems to be 'between the devil and the deep blue sea,' the chaos of no government and no accurate and reliable information would seem to be 'the lesser of two evils.'

What group is assumed too much power?

In my opinion that would be the media; in particular, the broadcast media. Those that believe that the government or the people in government are the answer must take into consideration that so much of the media is delivering opinion rather than news. We don't get to hear what government officials are actually doing only what a particular media person or media group wants us to think they are doing. That power trumps the power of the government.

Is the media's primary role entertainment?

That would depend on where you work. If you work in the media, I should think that you would see its role as paying your wages. However if you are a customer, your primary objective would be entertainment. The media also has a role in keeping people informed and scrutinising government.
