There are many ways in which media shapes the lives of people, some good and some bad. One medium has changed my life personally is the internet. Since I have grown up with it, it may seem odd that it has changed my life but there are certain things that the internet does that other forms of media do not. The internet helps me to stay in touch with the things that are going on in the world and that helps me to grow as a person. If I was to get my news from TV, I woul dhave to sit down at a certain time and listen to everything that they are talking about. On the internet, I can filter through what I want to read and what I do not care about as much.
Because of the internet, I can still keep up with society and its happenings, while I am still going on with my everyday, busy life. The internet is extremely helpful and I am grateful that it is there to make my life easier. Without it, I would be completely out of the loop. When I open up my comcast.net homepage everyday, it allows me to gain knowledge about my surroundings and if I did not have this, I would not watch the news because I have no interest in that, therefore i would not be up to date on any happenings in the country.
