Media Questionaire

What is media ?

Media is a advertisment for people in our society today.Its a source to make us belive things.
What is your favorite form of media?
Internet ,magazines,news,music ..etc.Abit of everything .Its impossible to say that i perfer only one when everysingle one of us uses every sort of media and medium there is out there.

What medium do you use the most ?

Internet and magazines.Internet mostly for my school work & magazines for my own beniffit.I perfer magazines because its more of a visual type of medium .

Where does media make itself visible in your life?

Evereywhere,Wheather im walking outside, in school, at work.... its there.For example when im walking on the side walk its there.We have become the visible part of the media, because we buy the new technologie, the new fashion treands ,even the food we eat outside our home.

What is the impact of media on our society today?

Out of 100 i would have to say 95%.Media has expanded itslef to a whole other level.Yes it may be important to know the news around the world and see how we can help.But do we really need the iphone? ipod?Touch camera?Flat screen tv's.? the answer is we really dont .Just because we see these things expand in our society we feel the need to have them.

Truth &Trust




How do we "build" information?


In some cases, many people belive that we are never really building information ,but reliving it.Take wars for example,back in 1941 on december 7 there was the attack of Pearl Harbor.
Japanese against the Americans.That was world wide news everywhere during that period of time.But did the war ever really finish? No not really .If you hear news today there is still countries the United States in particully whom are still fighting .For what ? oil. So you see how can we build information that is already there.Were basing our facts on facts.So basiclly its a circle of news .It was always there, we just payed a spek of attention .

When does that information become "truth"

The media feed us what they want us to belive.But is that the way things really are ? Were not there to see with our own eyes, but even at that could we trust our own subjectives.Perhaps not all medium informations are fales but here is one that i think you maybe aware of. In 2004 it was stated that Wikipedia was giving fales information.How so ? a souce so many peopl relie on.Appearently we could change info.For example it stated that the Mayer of Montreal had said and Qoute"i like touching myslef".Now to what extend should i belive it.For all i know it maybe true.But you see if we are stuck with somethign in out head and then come soon to realize its wrong that great, but there is still half the world who thinks otherwise.So its not the media.Its us, It depends how far our ignorence will go.

Is there an issue of trust with sources?
Like it is stated in the pervious paragraphs , it all comes down to what we think.Eveyone has a different mentality,everyone has different belifes.to trust a source its
like a vase.. once it's broken, though you can fix it the vase will never be same again.So what im trying to say is that most news we pay attention to is american .we hear their perspective on things .What they belive is going on in iraq.But once we hear how the iraq people look at things we then soon see ourself thinking outside the box.


When do you turst them?
After breaking the trust and confidence of the media, it will take a great deal of patience and determination for you as a person to not be ignorent. With perseverance and determination, it is possible to turn the medias disappointment in you around to somthing positive, and your understanding of what you think is right to belive.So its like saying in order to win you need to lose .In order to trust the media you need to know its negative pionts.
