What is the media?, Pros and Cons, Famous people and the Media

Media

The Media is everywhere, you find it in the TV, radio, magazines, newspapers, billboards, internet…-I think you got it, right? ;)-. These types of Medias are intended to disseminate messages/news to inform people. The media is something that has evolve through the years, especially with the invention of the Internet. With the Internet the news run faster and in one second a person from Alaska can know what’s going on in the Middle East. The media has it pros and cons:

Pros:

-It inform people, let them communicate with others/interact, it also help find criminals, students do better in school, better quality of life, generate employments

Cons:

-          Make people fear, cause accidents and sometimes the media doesn’t tell the whole truth- most of the time it happen to the famous people-,some students don’t  use it for school works and instead use facebook, twitter, instagram…etc.

Now, Famous People and the Media

I'm kind of obsess with knowing everything about the celebrities I like, but there’s something that I always hated when I read a “breaking news”, I don’t like when people speculate and spread false rumors, making the singers, actors, socialite… look bad and at the end of the day it comes out that it was all a lie. Also, sometimes the medias says that someone die when it’s not true. “He (media) wanna write my obituary”-Michael Jackson, Breaking News Song.

Some singers wrote songs about this theme and how they felt about being stalked the whole time and hearing false rumors, for example: Miley Cyrus, Fly on The wall- the Fly is the paparazzi-, Michael Jackson, Monster and Breaking News, The Fratellis, Tell me a lie, Rihana, S&M.

Those are examples of songs that talk about how the singers felt and think about the media, and it also let us know that we shouldn’t believe everything that it’s said in the internet, news, newspaper…

How would you feel if you where famous and you have someone behind you the whole time taking pictures and saying false things about you? 

I don't want to say that the media is a bad thing, but when is too much is too much.

Peace out :)
