An assignment was also given to us about the roles of media in the democratic society

EVO 1
Given the available media that we now have in the world, what are its roles and functions in a
democratic society?
1.       Amplifier – it will help people to voice out their opinions they think are unheard. For example, newly evolved media, such as twitter and facebook, help raise awareness on social issues
2.       Channel – connects the government, society and the people
3.       Information source – provides the people their right to be informed and helps the government to accomplish their responsibility to inform citizens
4.       Watchdog – helps eye the menace in the society including crimes, corruption and illegal activities.

In what way does media affect your life (personal, professional, academic, social, others)?

Media greatly affects my day to day activities. It provides me the information I need to survive, literally. I need it to study and learn, and grow to be a responsible and good citizen. I also use it to entertain myself. Life would be boring without it. It is also the basis of my routine. I am also aware of the happenings around me through media. It helps me keep myself safe.
