About Me

My photo
Everyday I wake up to the fascinated world that we live in full of constant advancements in American life. The media is a tool that informs and entertains on fictional ideas and realities of our world. I chose media's influnce as my topic because feel that so many americans watch television, surf the web, and listen to music and that overtime it influnces our opinions, attitudes, and behavior. Its influence on society is sometimes overlooked unless brought to attention. I feel obliged to bring to light the viewpoints of the media's influence and effect on modern sociey.

Interview


Mass media’s influence on society can be best opinionated by someone who works in the media industry. Knowing this, I had the wonderful opportunity to interview Jeh Jeh Pruitt, a news anchor for Fox 6 news of Birmingham. Mr. Pruitt provided me his sincere opinions and beliefs on the media’s influence on society. What was once myopic to me, Mr. Pruitt gave me valuable information on the subject as he allowed me to see what has seen over his years in the media industry along with his supported opinion.
“The media has the biggest influence of all, but it is up to the individual to allow it to have a positive or negative effect”, he said. I couldn’t agree more with this as we engaged in this conversation about the world’s largest and fastest moving industry. I have learned from Jeh Jeh that our American society is constantly being shaped each day by what the media displays. I enjoyed my interview with Mr. Pruitt as he gave me his valued opinion on the subject and enabled me to fully understand mass media’s influence on our society.
