Sentence corrections needed!!!

Consider this sentences:

1. What we are actually referring to in here is that the riverside refers to the ground. (Is the sentence correct grammatically)?

2. The media play a major role in influencing people's opinions. (Shouldn't the verb be "plays")?

3. The high cost of rented accommodation put a severe strain on our finances. (Shouldn't the verb be "puts")?
