Mass Media in our life

Promote massive changes

Undoubtedly the media accompany the masses during each of the changes that take place. Over the years people have changed their way of informing themselves, preferring some media and leaving others aside.

One of the most important changes that have taken place in the media is the popularization of the use of social networks. People interact with other users, create opinions, and set trends, among other behaviors.

A study conducted in collaboration with the agency We Are Social and the agency Hootsuite found that in the world there are 3800 million users of social networks. This figure was updated in January 2020.

The 5 most popular social networks are:

 

1. 
   Facebook: 2450 million users
   
2. 
   Youtube: 2000 million users
   
3. 
   WhatsApp: 1600 million users
   
4. 
   FB Messenger: 1300 million users
   
5. 
   WeChat: 1151 million users
   

These data mean important changes in social behavior. Today, social networks propose a new form of virtual socialization, with diverse virtues and defects.

Conclusion

The importance of media is such that an intense mental exercise of critical analysis is required. Every day we receive a lot of information about the most diverse topics. Our duty is to constructively criticize the information we receive so that our thinking is not manipulated in favor of other people’s interests. This learning begins in childhood and lasts a lifetime.
