Why are mass media important to you?
I live in a time where most of my conversations occur online and my friendships can be defined by a simple request on Facebook. I no longer go shopping in stores and look at the new shoes I find the latest trends and wardrobes from tv commercials and online shopping. I no longer hear about the latest gossip by grouping around some friends at school. I do not even need to be in the same country to keep in touch with someone. Even my twitter account tells me "Hello it is 2012 get with the news" Mass media has warped my sense of acceptance in the modern world, and the weirdest part is that I do not even know when it happened. Mass media is like a crutch that I stand on so my voice can be heard on many more mediums. Mass media is important to my life, I cannot even escape the television. I spend my summers in Rankin Inlet, even in the essence of the olden days in our cabin there can be a tv seen in the bedroom. Mass media is everywhere and I believe that it is my obligation to try to make sense of it.
Terrie.
