How is media vital in modern life?

   In this modern life media plays a big role, we usually tend to use it for personal reasons such as entertainment, socialization, learning, communication, business etc. There are many types of platform in the media such as radio which would be used for getting messages across. TV, magazines for entertainment uses, newspaper and billboard will get information across. Also the computer which is the source of media and you will be able to find many things online.

     The internet is one of the main reasons why the media is so successful and vital to us this is because as we all know we are able to socialize, watch programmes, listen to music, watch videos, read online newspaper, send and receive mail, access website which will give us information on many things. This has allowed people to communicate to other people around the globe and make new friends or relationships. The internet
allows us to find information about the past and the history of many countries and find out where these countries are.

     The mass media allow us to find out what is happening around the world. This shows that the media  is important because it allows us to find out information from around the world, however we also use the media for our own uses such as socialization, communication and entertainment and this may cause us to become too attached and rely on it. For instance people how use the computer to socialize this causes them to hide behind the screen.

       Media can be stereotypical because it has the power to label someone or a group of people for something they are or not and people would believe what they hear but are we sure this may be true. This is because it is very powerful.

   
    To conclude I think the media is very vital to this modern life because people rely on the media for so many things and if the media was to collapse and we would be lost. The media allows us to make a social life online and meet new people. The media provided use with many things which we use and may need. I find the internet a very useful source off the media which I use.
