Media Influence On The Media

History has changed. Ideas and standards have also changed. Back in the day, when the media or movies showed a hint or a dash of blood, the reaction of the average person was shock and disgust at the blood and gore shown. These scenes and clips shown have become more and more extreme over the years to the level of being hazardous to society. Even in the videogame industry, certain scenes that may have caused outrage and commotion fifteen years ago are now seen as childish and may even be considered as humorous. To put it candidly, most of the mass media has been used widely to its ability to influence and persuade, to glorify, and diabolize thoughts and actions of individuals. Yet people of this generation still spend a great percentage of

“The media 's the most powerful entity on Earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent, and that 's power. Because they control the minds of the [people]” (Malcolm X). The message of this Malcolm X quote is that society can control the mind of the individual. This is true. For many years, society has influenced everyone worldwide both negatively and positively. That is because society has the ability to control the individual’s decisions. They can control the individual in making their decisions that could affect people’s lives worldwide; it also has the ability to control their decisions that could affect the individual’s life. You might be thinking “But why should we care about this topic? This doesn’t seem really important to us” well it’s important because we all can relate to this as everyone has been influenced by society at least once in their lifetime. Just ask yourself this. Have you ever simulated a role model that you had by just copying the actions that they do just because you wanted to be just like them? Have you picked up habits from society that is around you like family or peers that has affected you in your life? Have you ever maybe tried something you found from your family members or from the Internet to get your personal needs? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you are involved in this conversation. But there’s a problem. There’s an argument going on about this topic. The controversy of this topic

The first headline that we saw was, “The best place on Earth” and they were talking about Seahaven. They used this headline because Truman low key wants to leave Seahaven and he is searching for Lauren Garland who is in “Figi.” And they don’t want Truman to leave. The next headline we saw was, “Who cares about Europe,” which that was the headline because Truman wants to leave Seahaven and explore but they do not want Truman to try and leave. Which those were the only two I had but all the headlines were to try and talk Truman into not leaving by talking about how great Seahaven is and how everywhere else sucks.

Television reaches more consumers for more time than any other source of media. Its use for entertainment or news is overly influential, persuasive, and authoritative. Through these characteristics, any type of information or message influences its massive audience. Because of this, what Americans see – or fail to see- has a powerful impact on how they view other races. Young children are especially vulnerable to the information they are exposed to. TV is a vehicle to provide experiences and information not otherwise available to them. Older audiences, however, are also vulnerable to the information. Consistent messages about traits and stereotypes of other races reinforce specific ideas to the adult viewer. Viewers aren’t limited to racial bias when other races are on the screen, but are also susceptible when races aren’t included. As a strong and influential tool, television uses both obvious and subtle racial bias to influence its viewers.

Media is a huge part of people’s lives in today’s society. Through different forms of media people can now obtain vast amounts of information at the slightest touch of a finger. While it is convenient and comforting to have access to so much data, the question arises. How much of this information we receive shapes our lives? Mass media as an agent of socialization can prime and/or skew people’s belief system through mere exposure without the slightest clue of it affects. Mass media as an agent of socialization can structure people’s perception on society as a whole by simply using influence, control, and trust.

It’s pretty clear that the elections are much different than they used to be, and we can blame our easy access to media for that. The people learn everything they know about politics through things they see on television and the link they just shared on facebook. But is that even real, are they polluting our minds with unnecessary drama? Anything from magazines to the social media on our iphones help influence the opinions of voters, set the behavior of the candidates, and the public agenda.

Mass media are the primary component of modern society. People customarily consume countless hours of television, movies, and surfing the net where they see examples and expectations of what men and women are supposed to be. Advertisements and magazines inform us of how we are supposed to look, relate to one another, and live. The influence of mass media manifests itself into our routines, our purchasing decisions, our politics, our opinions and emotions, and almost every other aspect of our everyday lives. This tremendous influence most certainly plays a colossal part in how we view gender as well. June Cleaver was the ultimate example of the nurturing matriarch that was supposed to stay indoors taking care of the home, and Edith Bunker was shown as what a dependent and passive wife was supposed to be. At the same time, men were shown as having the opposite characteristics. You had Clint Eastwood, Ward Cleaver, and the Marlboro Man exuding the strength, aggression, breadwinning characteristics of "real men". Boys and girls, men and women believed they were to identify with these roles.

Unrealistic body image and eating disorders are perpetuated by the media in women of ages 5-24

In today’s culture, it’s hard not to come across some form of media, whether that is an advertisement on a roadway, a commercial on the television, or even an ad on the portable games you play on your phone. The average 8-18-year-old experiences about 7.5 hours of some form of media a day. [1] Out of the 24 hours in a day over a quarter of it is spent looking at or listening to advertisements for products, the news, video games, television, movies, music, books, and the internet. A common way to make a product, character, etc. is to make them or something associated with it look appealing. For beauty products, this is done with models with unhealthy or unrealistic images. [2] When did this idea start? And why would a model or actor go out of their way to obtain an an image that could potentially kill them? How can we help those who’ve been affected by these false images?

In every woman’s life, the media holds a strong influence on how she views herself. Whether it be a celebrity’s secret anti-aging cream, at-home workout plan, or new clothing line, women look towards the media to impact their decisions on their appearance. Although positive effects can come from letting advertisements guide one’s judgement, sometimes false advertisements can have a negative impact on how a woman perceives herself. People in charge of commercials, magazines, and other ads distort their publications in ways that critique someone’s physical appearance, otherwise known as body shaming. The body shaming done by the media today can lead a woman to not only a mental illness or an eating disorder, but can also lead to a sense of

HCI has affected this age more than some other in light of the headway available these days, it has changed the way people encounter their lives, especially for blocked customers and people with needs. You would now be able to use substance to-voice or the other way, focus on that person who can't talk, can sort what they have to state and the other individual can hear it. A not too repulsive event of this is the time when I made a trek to Turkey. The servers in a burger joint we went to, used 'English to Turkish mediator' on their phones, to appreciate what we were conveying, drawing in us to talk with each other, lighting the way that we couldn't physically address each other.

It seems that the cultural landscape is ever changing and evolving. Issues that were rarely discussed in media are now at the frontline of our media coverage, such as police brutality, racial disparity and immigration reform. Everything from political party preference to the increasing diversity of race and sexual orientation in each generation has an effect on the values portrayed in media. The value of each new generation effects how the media shapes itself to market to that general public. In order to understand the fluidity of the media, it is important to examine the change in the landscape of media, and how it has adapted to meet each generations needs.

While analysing media ownership, it resulted clear how proprietorial influence plays an important role in citizens’ lives. It is not just a matter of controlling the news outcome but it also directly influences politics where media coverage is essential for the spreading of ideas. Regarding this topic, the perfect example in position of power is Rupert Murdoch, a man whose only cravings are power and control, a man who has built an empire from the ground earning a position of international respect and importance. He has become the face of the news, or more accurately, the man behind the news. Every single person that works for him is subjected to is halo of influence even when he is not around. Politicians fear his power because it can affect their careers, freedom of the press activists sill dream of the day his massive empire will disaggregate. Today’s news is overall influenced by five major companies; therefore, the questions arises spontaneously: can we trust what we read?

In the last 50 years the media influence has grown exponentially with the advance of technology, first there was the telegraph, then the radio, the newspaper, magazines, television and now the internet.
