So I did the homework assignment where I had to interview some people about media. I had to ask them two questions and I had to make another third question to ask them too. Now I have to make a blog about it.
I asked three people "What is "media"?" They all had pretty odd ways of saying that it was a form of communication. I think my father said it the best, "Anything that facilitates communication." He made sure I used the word facilitates and not use "uses" like I asked him if I could.
The second question was "How do the "media" impact your life?" This time they went with statements on getting information and how they put it to use. My dad I think was the most on topic with this question by saying, "It helps me decide on everyday things I do." To benefit from information you have to put it to use, right?
My third one got a little tricky. I asked, "Without media, how would your life change?" My dad went with the idea that it's not even possible to not have media because we couldn't work together without communication. I couldn't agree more. The other two went with living without mass media. They went with less informed about things in the other parts of the world and better lives here and now.
If you think about it, media is the backbone behind civilization. Without it we would never let our ideas spread and never gotten along to work together towards a common goal. Take it away and we are almost animals. In my opinion that's what makes it so important to have a class about it.
