The Mass Media: Has it Got A Hold Of You?

Has the media got ahold of me? I dont really think so, but i do think that it has done a good job on controlling society, I can admit I do use some certain media for everyday use, like my Ipod, I wouldn't even think about going any where without it because music is just a daily routine. Another form of media i can say I use on a more daily basis is facebook. I wouldn't say im dependend on it because it just gets used to see what people are up to or to find cell numbers ect. The media that would get the least amount of attention from me would probably be the celebrity media coverage, i just don't see the point in following peoples live's just because they have money or where in a recent film. Like I care about where Brittney spears ate lunch, But if you look at the generation we grew up in you can see that were surrounded by media/ always evolving technology so it has just always been in our life since we were born. So has the media got ahold of me? No it hasn't got control of me but it is still a big part in my life.
