Media 's Influence On Media

This is a result of media globalisation and transnationalising audiences emerging in a globalised society today. Media globalisation is a phenomenon that causes us to be understood

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

Researchers have found that although Canadian society features growing diversity, this diversity usually is not reflected in media content. For example, research show that ethnic-racial minorities have rarely been seen at annual and nationally television Juno awards ceremony for the Canadian music industry (Tepperman, Curtis, 2013, p.354). Americans children’s are the most powerful consumer in the world .As we seen in the movie “consuming kids” in which it show how youth marketers have used the latest anthropology, psychology that transform the American children in to the most profitable consumer in the world. This first section of this paper will explore the influence of media towards ethnic-racial minorities. This paper then will

The article “Affective Belongings across Geographies” by Koen Leurs, Mariëtte de Haan, and Kevin Leander they argue that YouTube video viewing practices of Moroccan-Dutch youth and how they provide insight into affective belongings between subjects across local and global geographies. It is important to note that they view emotions as social and cultural practices. Using information from triangulation of large-scale surveys, in-depth interviews and the analysis of videos, they map out what emotions may be evoked from the viewers as they watch YouTube videos. It appeared that there were two sided engagements: viewing practices that sustain nostalgic feelings of transnational diaspora belonging and viewing practices that produce feelings of attachment to national and global youth-cultural orientations.

The underlying key theme that comes through in the three above elements involved in connecting diasporic groups, individuals and communities, and their ‘homelands’ is the communication of knowledge reproduction with in the transnational community. Communication is a key ingredient in the maintenance of identities practiced, performed and experienced because it enables those who go through these processes of identity maintenance to continue adding and building on their identities through the reproduction of knowledge from their ancestors, living relatives, social institutions and online interaction. The reproduction of knowledge is a structure within a society that allows information to be passed down from one generation to the next (reference), through

The term bias is relevant by critics in news outlets because people wonder why the shooting of 17 year old teenager airs by the means of showing a picture of the victim at age twelve. Bias occurs from these types of actions. This type of action carries into political markets by looking at the way major media outlets can be measured by their types of broadcasts. Some may be more liberal and others conservative. More specifically, the leading liberal outlets are Wall Street Journal, New York Times, and CBS evening news; the leading conservatives are Washington Times, Fox’s News special report, and ABC good morning America (Dubner). From a peoples perspective if they want to find a media outlet agreeing with their favorite political personality like President Barack Obama and Hilary Clinton they can look into the more liberal outlets; as for republicans they seek out conservative outlets (Dubner). News bias is prevalent in organizations with the use of dramatic and personalized aspects of events by focusing on individual actors (Bennett 42). In my opinion mainstream media has become bias to agree with the narrative that is more attractive to the audience or headlines that divides the two major political parties.

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.

“We are constantly surrounded by all sorts of media and we construct our identities in part through media images we see”(Ossola, Alexandra). In the world we live in today we are

Marginalisation of Ethnic Minorities in Contemporary Media In the last decade there has been an enormous change in the nature of the media and the ways people interact with it. For example, cable, terrestrial and satellite television channels plus widespread cheap access to the Internet and digital technology have spread rapidly from the USA to many other parts of the world. In addition audiences are now able to interact with the media to some extent, so they are able to exercise some control over the form and sometimes the content of the message they receive. For representation to be meaningful to audiences, there needs to be a shared recognition of people, situations and ideas.

The topic of how the media influence governmental issues is confounded, yet in its most fundamental definition, the right response to it is this: It depends. Albeit early standard way of thinking held that the media had solid, direct, supposed hypodermic impacts, later research gives persuading proof that individual-level and logical elements essentially impact the degree to which media influence individuals ' political conduct and convictions and, in the long run, open arrangement. The plan of this examination paper is to serve as a prologue to a portion of the essential hypotheses, bits of knowledge, and verbal confrontations about media and governmental issues. In doing as such, it touches on issues of media possession,

Social media publicizes a substantial amount of messages about identity and acceptable ways to express gender, sexuality and ones lifestyle, but at the same time, the viewers have their own differing feelings about the issues. The media may suggest certain feelings and actions, but the audiences feelings can never overpower self-expression completely. The media portrays certain things because it is what is being accepted. Neither parties, these being the media and its audience, have full power over their actions. Both go hand-in-hand to influence each other at times allowing media to take over actions, while the audience has its own feelings about actions to either agree or disagree with the media. Gender and sex are two different things that people tend to confuse when describing people, but both can easily be cleared up, along with talking about how people influence media and media influences people. Television, movies, and toys are not just to blame on media making them the way they are today. The societal influencing that inspired these may have turned into an exaggerated form, but the overall concepts came from society and would not continue to be around if the consumer did not accept these feelings, issues and lifestyles.

Media, through technology and its use by agents in social and material production, operates on a local and a global level through its production and dissemination. This creates spaces in which roles and agendas can be played out to the conclusion of an end product. This end product, however, is not only the produced media, but the anticipated reception of the consumer and the after-effects of the content specifically targeted by the producers or more generally as a consumable thing by a wider audience. Whether we talk about the local or the global, something that shouldn’t be discounted is the cultural accumulation and dispersion that takes place in both spaces in practice. Hannerz writes, “culture is learned and acquired in social life” (Hannerz 1998: 8), “it is somehow integrated” (ibid), and “these collectivities” (ibid), are “affected by interconnectedness in space” (ibid). The third point is the most important when we talk about the global, as the global has become created and defined by the interconnectedness it inevitably generates.

Seen as the heart of the political system, the media and its different portrayals of the presidency result in a quite unique relationship. At times, the media portrays the President positively and at other times the relationship may be a bit more negative. This relationship tends to make the flow of information and media spotlight a concern for the President to maintain. But, controlling the stream of information isn’t an easy task particularly when it is unfairly negative. The mass media retains unrealistic expectations of the President at times. Positive and negative portrayals and the constant effort to control the flow of information shape a distinctively complicated relationship with the media.

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.

Globalisation has become a major research area in media studies, as it has brought about changes and new developments in media technologies that have effectively produced new forms of interconnected worlds (Faulconbridge and Beaverstock 2008, p. 333). Held and McGrew (2002) in
