every day, we are all influenced by the mass media, although some critics of the media claim that these means of communication are mainly to control our thinking and get us to buy products that we don’t need, the media also contribute to giving people information. in other words, while dangers do exist, the benefits of the media far outweigh(超過) the shortcomings. most of the messages brought to viewers, listeners, and readers are designed either to inform or to amuse, and neither of these goals can be considered dangerous or harmful.
if consumers of the media could be taught at an early age to examine messages critically, i.e., to think carefully about all that is being communicated, they would be able to take advantage of the information and entertain the news or scriptwriters, the advertisers, and so on. are both sides of an issue being presented? is the amount of violence and killing shown necessary to the point of a story? have enough details about a product being advertised been presented?
