MEDIA IMPACT
A lot of people blame the media for pretty much everything now a days. For example, television shows are getting more graphic and less censored things. In my opinion, I believe it is not the media's fault entirely, but mainly the fault in someones surrounding ( life). Parent's and friends are one reason in why people do what they do. I had typed a the Internet for examples oh how the media was to be blamed for, and I came upon something interesting called Shifting the Blame Society's Solution. This person wrote about how parent's are the ones to blame because there the ones that teach their kids right from wrong. The one thing that caught my attention was when the writer said that in reality there are consequences, but in the media, their isn't any as much. For example, in the movie " Get Rich or Die Tryin'", 50 Cent got away with A LOT. Sure he got shot and went to jail, but he killed many people and still lived life without going to jail. Humans know right from wrong and I believe, to a certain age, that everyone knows what to do and what is wrong. Media shouldn't be the only ones to blame.

MEDIA AUTOBIOGRAPHY
Media has influenced my life in many ways and has giving me an open mind on certain situations and topics. I'm not much of a book reader because now a days they become movies. Books such as The Twilight Saga and Harry Potter are examples of books becoming movies. In my opinion, I never really realized how crazy fans could get and made me not want to follow what everyone else watches. I've read lots of magazines. mainly in my teen years, and that is where I find the "down low" about EVERYTHING and EVERYONE. People, Elle, Us Weekly, and Ok magazines are the top magazines of gossip and I love reading them. The media has a certain way to switch up stories and make up things that the celebrities say, do, or are seen with. Movies are one thing in my life, besides music, that I love. I have plenty of VHS videos and DVD's such as Boyz in the Hood, Titanic, and Knocked up. IPods are the " it " electronics in this generation and I love it. Without an ipod, I don't know how I would function on a daily basis. My future career is to become a Radio personality or a Vj. I love talking and just the whole vibe from what I listen to on the radio makes me want to pursue my career even more. 106 KMEL and Wild 94.9 are my number one radio stations, I like the spanish ones as well. The t.v is like what I watch on a daily basis. Its like a magazine or a radio station, they have a lot to say. It's basically the media in one plus more. It's part of me. The internet is overall the best thing ever invented for school and other perpuses. We use the internet for school, to get information, the look up anything you desire to know or see. The media has its good and its bad, but no matter what we humans are adjusted to it and is part of our lives.
