As I came to United States in 2002 I have noticed that media plays a big role in our society. Every single thing and factor is based on finding out personalized topics and themes for every single individual, people in United States are free and are able to choose any program on TV from the variety of 1000 channels or more and everyone could live comfortably enjoying infomercials, sport channels, entertainment, favorite TV shows, educational programs. If I watch and follow American media I could with all due bravery claim to any other media in the world “ You just name it We Got It”. We got Entertainers from around the world performing stunts risking their lives carriers brutally competing with each other just to find a little market niche and make millions of dollars of some percent of 300 million of citizens in this country. So can I claim that our real life relations, our real life understanding of each other, how we treat each other reflects upon in our media. Can I say that what We watch is what we became. But what happened to love? What happened to respect? What happened to human kindness, human understanding, what happened to us? What is the meaning of living in this society is it the freedom to express ourselves publicly but at the same time being publicly controlled like bunch of made up characters that subordinate rules that media feeds to us. And can I say that the person with the bigger wallet could just use media to hide his/her mistakes from the public. Can I say that propaganda and negativity could arise from our misunderstanding of media, from our addiction to media, from our trust of media. Wow and the funny fact is that We all know that and still follow the same concept, lets use media for business, it don’t really matter if We spend millions of dollars apologizing for selling cigarettes and killing lives of many, We have a right to pay any channel request air time and just provide information that benefits us and not the viewer not the innocent. And what about internet, something that has been used all around the world and takes seconds to spread files of information. I really wonder what would happen if the internet control falls into bad greedy sneaky hands of some sort of individual who We will never meet, but will depend on his actions and decisions, I really wonder if that is or not happening write now, it really scares me what will the future generation become, it really scares me what values will be left in people harts, and I am afraid that it will be none. I am afraid that no one will do anything about stopping media that causes harm, stopping explicitly that media brings, stopping the brain washing that media creates. Why can’t We be free without seeking example of how to live from media, why cant We trust and love each other, help each other find hope in ourselves, accept ourselves. Well number one reason could be because We are too tired too angry too frightened too selfish? And off course number two reason is how will our dear Media make millions of dollars by manipulating with our emotions, oh their not going to, so is it safe to say that our media controls us, that what We watch is what We became? Thank you anyone who gave attention reading this.
