It is becoming more and more difficult to escape the influence of the media on our lives. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of living in a media-rich society.
In
this
modern era, being persuaded by the media
is something that people
cannot avoid but people
still can manage the impact
of that. Some people
argue that media
has an enormous impact
both positive and negative on human daily life. This
essay will discuss what are the benefits and drawbacks that provided by media
.
By using media
, people
can get and update information
easily. There are many kinds of media
, newspapers, magazines, and TV is some examples. For instance
, some people
who are busy and do not have time to keep up-to-date about recent news can access information
easily from that platform. In addition
, if they cannot follow live reports for certain news, they will find that on the online media
platform. Another benefit of media
is some artists use that platform to sell and also
get feedback from people
randomly. In this
case, moreover
, they can use the feedback as motivation to be more creative. It is more positive than the artist only showing their artwork on exhibition with limited visitors.
However
, there are also
some negative effects provided by media
. Many people
today can confess as professionals based on knowledge or information
that they get from unreliable sources. For example
, some people
can practice as a therapist and sell their services illegally even though they never follow any kind of massage training. Another drawback of media
is there is a lot of unreliable information
provided by unrespect media
. As a result
, people
will confuse about the real information
that they get before sharing it with others and it is possible to increase the number of untruthful sources.
To conclude
, even though the media
growing rapidly and show some positive impact
on human life, it also
can provide negativity. The impact
of media
itself actually cannot be avoided but people
can manage in what way they use and get from it.Submitted by rahmad.iriyandi on
