First lesson about media text theories

There are many reasons why people use media text one may be that they are looking to extract information to build up their own knowledge, entertainment is definitely another reason for media consumption by people or it could be that it is more preferred by the certain individual. 


When we consume media text it influences us to produce opinions or change opinions or make indoctrinated.     


In lesson we discussed the model of the media and how audience uses different media text such as the internet, TV and music for consumption and how this can have an affect. In future stages of this course we will be deeply analysing different theories such as the uses and gratification model, the effects model, the reception theory, the suture theory, application of feminist theory and Godwin's theory.
