How important is mass communication in your life?

I don't know you personally, so I don't know how you are influenced by Mass Communication, but it's safe to say that the majority of us are very much affected by what we see, hear, and read in the mass media. This includes radio, television, the internet, recorded music, movies, books, magazines, and newspapers. All of these media in some way entertain, inform, or educate us, and they certainly transmit messages about our culture.
