The media plays a huge part in today’s society because it is everywhere! People have it on their phones, televisions, and even the radio! Media is also filled with tons of ads or commercials. These commercials like to persuade everyday people to buy their product. These companies must use many different techniques to have a sufficient impact on their target audience. A commercial I see a lot of the time is from Ford Motor Company showing off their new 2015 F-150 Truck. This new Ford commercial…

Reading Rosenberg’s thoughts in her chapter “A Good Sailor” she once again seemed to take more of a top down approach, although she studied many people her main focus was on the men who made people disappear. I believe that this provided a unique prospective of how one looks at the events that have taken place. Like she had stated in her chapter on El Salvador “The Laboratory” many journalist focus on the most obvious victim but not on the men and women of a higher social status or in this case…

The intellectual elements during The Twenties mainly revolved around the invention of the radio. The radio was able to create a “national mass culture” (Keene, 634). It was able to spread news and stories, as well as, promote the sale of certain products. People who were able to obtain these radios, which was about 60 percent of the American population, gathered around them to hear the latest in sports and elections (Keene, 634). The radio provided a quick and easy way to spread information.…

From early art in the 1600’s to the emergence of television, the media has had a rapid and unstoppable invasion on lives. Media overwhelms society with drama and entertainment. In “Supersaturation, or, The Media Torrent and Disposable Feeling” by Todd Gitlin, he asserts paintings were what television is today: entertainment. In the 1600s, these paintings were passed down from generation to generation, and today, television shows rarely last two seasons. Gitlin feels as though the media…

How much power does the media aspect of the world have on the human body? When the world encounters a horrific event, the details of such event goes straight to the media. People rely on the news channels and the web to get the details they want to know. People have encoded their brain to become fixated on the next big thing, and they cannot stand to be without the media.

The book Understanding Media: The Extensions of Men by Marshall Mcluhan discusses a rather "old fashioned" view to the way that Americans use and view technology. The author describes how at the time the newest inventions such as TV and Phones are quickly shaping our future. When I read this I realized that I was pretty dated. The opinions in here probably would have stayed the same if revised there would probably would have been just a more in depth study into all of the different social media…
