Blogs about: Media
Media provides us with all sorts of things: the news of the day, distract-me-please dramas, and straight-up cold, hard facts. Not so long ago, we had to get by with newspapers, radio and the occasional visiting circus or theater troupe. These days, we’re immersed in media (tv, radio, internet, computers, magazines, cell phone apps, books, etc., etc., etc.) to an almost ridiculous level. It’s fun to wonder what aliens might think of us based on our media sensations alone. In reality, though, many of us take this all for granted. Mass media, in its many iterations, will be around forever, right?
