Mass Media Effects

Media affects us in more ways than one. For example lifestyle, media is integrated into our everyday lives since we were little. In child development, media presents people with cultural values and role models. Those two are very important in a child’s live and media has a strong pull in that. It’s a growing issue because children are becoming more immune to abuse because of mass media and also role models showed on mass media are not the best for children. Mass media has affected our attitude towards violence and cultural values. Media desensitized people by making them get used to violence and sexual media content. Because we are exposed to it every day we become desensitized and not pay attention to it or become appuled by it.
