Does anything surprise you when you look at your interactions with the media? how do you feel about your exposure to media? is it too much, or too little, just right? Expalin.

I think we are exposed to too much media, if it was just in a few places it would be okay, but its everywhere you go. There is no way to escape it and it has alot of control over people nowadays. I believe the media has too much influence on our society today, people don't think for themselves anymore the media does it for them.
