MASS MEDIA

Mass Media are strategic phenomena which involve our society making us some kind of puppet which follows products. Entities like radio, television, newspapers, magazines or shops are the leading companies whom ads or subliminal messages influence our level of anxiety for buying more and more every day. It’s sad to admit it but we all fall into the temptation and it is like the sign we need to blame them without thinking if it is our fault to answer their appeals. That is why they are clever than us and they know how to sell or incite us to do what they want. STOP, may be they know how to cheat us but we must be stronger and more realistic to understand that there are things we don’t need or even we haven’t seen for years as a need, so it is not now the time to make it ours.

Besides this part of an objective criticism, Mass Media are a good and consolidated source of information that helps us to know what is happening all around the world just taking a glimpse on internet or turning on the television or the radio (the newspapers or magazines too). Behind this title “Mass Media” is hidden a lot of people who works without resting (travelling, investigating) for showing the last minute news at all costs. These people deal with economy, policy, culture, yellow or red press and even gossip magazines, etc. Mass Media have grown up since internet appeared.

An advice is to be conscious and impartial about we watch or read because loads of sources of information are not speaking or writing on an objective way and that can spark off in what each person thinks. There are so many channels and newspapers that make up or distort what they are talking about influenced by political views that it is hard to distinguish what it is true or to discover what is missing.
