Whoever Controls the Media, Controls the Mind -Jim Morrison
Media has never been my forte, I don't like to sit for too long and I cant stand the computer or the phone.
Our Class involvement with the Media has been effective in my everyday life, the films we saw in class sparked lots of emotion. Medias rule our world from fashion to political beliefs. I now only look for the slant in the news broadcasting and the masculine white male image that dominates American movies and magazines.
The Media now seems totally one sided governed by the rich and powerful who only want to expose the people to what they want. The information obtained in our lectures and videos promotes concern for our society, the fear that all we have is image, and our minds are loosing individuality. "The man" doesn't want the people concerned with the reality of America he wants us distracted with fear and unattainable social image.
This was a great topic for College students and in time hopefully to maintain our unique Freedoms we will pull together and exterminate the control Media has in our lives!
Yes, the government is controlled by the rich and powerful. Also the videos we saw in class really do make you thin. I mean come on women have to be feminine and men have to be masculine really. In that case there are lots of things I should really stop doing, but then if I don't do it, it will never get done.
