Media
is an important way for society to communicate ideas to a large amount of
people at once. My role as a media consumer is to try to form my own opinions and
viewpoints about what is broadcasted in television, radio, what is written in newspapers,
books and magazines. Another role that I
have an obligation as a media consumer is to be able to express my ideas about
different issues. The most important
role that I have as a media consumer is the ability to support fair and honest
journalism, television programs and radio broadcasts. I am the consumer who can choose what
television programs and news that I watch.
I can subscribe or unsubscribe to various magazines and newspapers, if I
believe they are trying to influence my ideas and opinions about various issues
throughout the world. My role is to be able to express my ideas and opinions in
a fair and just manner. My role as a media
consumer is to reject computer websites that write about hatred, ridicule or
express racist ideas. Media is all around me and most people use some form of
media on a daily basis. People are so
infatuated with their social media accounts in today’s world. I use Facebook,
Twitter and Instagram on a daily basis to communicate with my friends, family
and peers. These forms of media allow me to interact with others in a fast and convenient
way. Social media allows people to be able to read or listen to other ideas
from all over the world. It is very easy to like posts, share content and
comment on other people’s social media accounts. YouTube is another social
media account that I can learn about others and communicate with the world. It fascinates
me how there are so many videos I can watch on YouTube, all with varying topics
and I can easily update this medium globally. In my free time, I enjoy taking
surveys, reading articles and watching videos on Buzz Feed. Buzz Feed is another
website that is interesting, fun and makes time pass by quickly.
Television
is another media form that I use on a daily basis. I watch the news each night
and I am able to learn about different events that occurs throughout the world
in a fast and entertaining way. Television is an important form of media and
allows ideas and facts to be spread quickly. I like to watch PBS news to find
out about current events and find out what is taking place in the world, as
well as, about other people’s lives. It is a broadcast station that also
provide me with different types of cultural activities, musical concerts and a vast
array of different forms of entertainment.
Magazines
are another type of media that I use in my daily life. Reading different
articles allows me to learn about other points of view in my society. Magazines touch points on politics, disasters
in other parts of the world and I can read about different points of view. I am
able to get an idea how different voters view both candidates through various
polls. I can then communicate my points
of view with others. I am given the
opportunity to share various viewpoints with my friends, family, college
students and Professors. It gives me an
avenue where I can become more rounded and expand my knowledge about many
issues. I am able to learn about new
products, opinions, knowledge and promotions through the various magazines
published content. I enjoy reading Time Magazine and People Magazine.
