Media


The influence of media on societal values.

First of all, I think the media has a big influence on people, because you are constantly bombarded with publicity and advertises on the TV.
Also, different industries like fashion, food, and others, do things that invite people to copy them. The kids (girls and boys) are easily influenced. Then, young people think that not eating and being skin is good. It´s usual when you surf in internet, and you can see different forums talking about anorexia, bulimia as a normal way of life.
On the other hand, the media helps you in different contexts; for example; If you need to know the news, the weather, if you´re looking for information related with a homework, if you want to listen to music, etc.
We have to be careful with the way in which we allow that media to influence us, so we don´t become an easy prey.

  1. I study advertising and definitely be careful with the management of massive information. As you say we must be careful to also be critical to what the media tell us because the influence is real.
