Let s talk about the mass media.

What do mass media involve? How important are they?

The means of communicating news and information is termed as mass media. Mass media is classified in two categories: one is print media and the other is electronic media. Print media include newspapers, magazines, jour­nals and other printed materials, while electronic media include radio, televi­sion, satellite channels, internet, cinema etc.

It goes without saying that mass media has become an integral part of modem people’s life. The Internet, newspapers, magazines, journals, TV and radio keep us always informed about all the spheres of our life. Mass media offer us a great range of opportunities for education and entertainment. How­ever, I’d like to point out the fact that we can benefit from mass-media sourc­es only possessing critical thinking. The information attacks us all the time and we undoubtedly need to filter it in order to save our sharp mind, creative thinking and bright personality.

Media is called the public fomm or people’s parliament. Media play the role of a bridge between the government and ordinary people. Media do not simply provide people with information, news and ideas but also raise vari­ous issues on social, economic and political matters. They also form con­sciousness and public opinions in different problems and issues. People ex­press their opinions through media. Various formats of programmes like talk show, street show, documentary, live reporting, video articles, editorials on different local and global issues are broadcast and published. Media keeps us dated about what is happening around the world. Media focus on various social evils, political or economic crisis and guide people through them. To­day right to information is recognized as one of the fundamental rights of people and media ensure this right.
