During many years, the significance
of television has become more important according as family recreation. The
function of the TV has been transformed, resulting in some other roles as
cultural topics and, the most important thing that is relevant to this essay,
to distract the people. Why people have more knowledge about people within
entertainment world than the current state of their country or the world?
However, in my opinion, I agree about knowing your social/cultural environment
through the entertainment world, but unfortunately, the more important
occurrences that does changes in the structure of the world does not related to
famous people of the entertainment world.
In consequence, apparently the media
has using it to move the attention of the people into other issues, even
conceal or manipulate information. In “Mass
media and national development: the role of information in the developing
countries” by Wilbur Schramm, he analyses the role of the media information
and how it changes: “(…) in some cases at least, it tends to ignore important events and to
distort the reality it presents." (Scharmm,W. 1964; p19). As he noticed, the
big problem is that the main role of the media has changed, (that is communicate
at all the population), becoming now to misinform people.
Therefore, can we release the
information to the world? How it changes the society? Is that related to as a
globalization problem, or is an ancient strategy?
