Media = Us


Look at any type of media and ask your self who created this, and why, what was his message? Then ask your self have I ever created an ad and posted it anywhere, or commented an a website, or even gossiped with my friends on facebook, twitter or Bbm? For most people in the world the answer is yes. If you are reading this blog right now the answer is probably yes. The millions of videos on youtube are videos we created. The pictures on Facebook and twitter are pictures of us. Wether you know it or not you are a part of the media. Everybody in the world contributes to the media.
All the posts on the internet wether its an article on a blog like this one, an ad, a gadget, video, comment and etc. is created by someone around the world and at one point or another that person could be you. Each contribution to the media has a message. Each contribution uses a different technique. It is important to remember that. We need to make use of the experiences of others through media. We need to learn the message that is expressed through the technique that the creator of the message has used as bate to lure you in, and with that you need to decide wether that is true or not.
