How does mass media reflect a political system globally?
The media basically expresses everything that we know about politics and what is going on in the real world, therefore it provides us with all of the information we know about politics and political issues. What the media tells us is what shapes our opinions on the political system. If the media shows us one politic is bad and one politic is good we will most likely believe it, and we wouldn’t even know if all the facts are true or not. Because this is the only way we really receive information about politics and the government, people depend on media to gain information about politics and other issues around the world. Without different forms of mass media, our nation would never receive information on governmental issues.

What is the significance of the First amendment with speech and press?
The First amendment of the Constitution of the U.S. guarantees the right of free expression; and includes freedom of assembly and freedom of the press and freedom of religion and freedom of speech. The significance of this is that the media can say whatever they want about anything. With this being said, I am sure a lot of mass media companies filter what they say, or have specific regulations on how they address a topic, because the way they act is going to affect their ratings and number of viewers or subscribers. Although they do also want to be a reliable source and gain the attention of people so they will have to find a balance between how they address something and the truth of what they are saying.
How does media shape the public’s agenda of issues?
How does media shape the public’s agenda of issues?
Media shapes the public’s agenda of issues because they present the people with facts, issues, and anything else going on presently. The media decides which topics are important and which aren’t. The media doesn’t necessarily tell people what to do or think, but it puts ideas in people’s heads, and then they react.
