Here I add my work about media as a self-study I hope you like it.


Media’s negative influence

Nowadays the media, television, radio, newspaper and Internet, is impacting in our daily lives subconsciously to everyone, from children to adults. The most influential media channel is television, which is bombarding us with thousand of images of violence, advertising, sex and celebrities. A child is exposed to about 40.000 advertising a year (Rayuso 2007).
Children cannot see the real problem for a war, because when they play a game is all about to win or to lose, but in the real war everyone loses. Also happen the same with teenager that when they watch television they only see perfect bodies on television and they think that is the prototype to follow, bringing alimentary problems as anorexia or obese. Another question is that the people can watch whatever they like and the majority of times are a fiction characters instead a real life that they can find everywhere, every time.
What this essay will claim is that media images have a negative influence in our world, our everyday life and we have to be aware about the dangerous of the problem.


Outline.

A. The violence is coming to us from different ways, news, series and every programme we watch on television, making it as a normal thing.
B. The television show us a wrong image about the perfect bodies that make teenager think they should be same as them. Bringing problems as anorexia or obese.
C. The people watch what they want to watch and it is a non-real life because they can enjoy thinking they are the protagonist of the film.


That is my introduction and outline I would like to have a feed back about expression if it´s understanding or no just to double check that I´m going to the good way.
I spend my afternoon reading another essay about this aim and trying to order my ideas for the next step ( 1º paragraph).
I did almost everything today because i don´t have time to anything because of work but at least there I speak in English and every day I learn something new.
