Media Reception
Media
The way that society receives information is undergoing constant change, as new technologies are developed the old ones are evolved or replaced.
the 4 main types of media are, broadcast, print, outdoor, and digital media.
Broadcast covers radio film and television and this type of media transmits its information electronically.
Print media uses a physical object to relay information in the form of either a book, pamphlet, newspaper or commit. etc.
Outdoor consists of billboards, signs and placards placed in public areas with a high volume of traffic. Sky writing, flying billboards and blimps are other examples of outdoor media.
Digital media compromises of internet and mobile communication. This provides many services such as email, websites, blogs and internet based television and radio. The other media outlets take advantage of the far reach and easy accessibility of the internet by having TV adverts that link to websites or putting QR codes in print and outdoor media to distribute them and direct mobile users to a website, this is what allows information to be easily broadcast to different world regions simultaneously and in a cost efficient way.
There is also some argument that video games have become a form of mass media.
