1. Given the available media that we now have in the world, what are the roles & functions in a Democratic society? Media is all around us, society is constantly interacting with social mediums for their own gratification, that gratification could be keeping contact with friend and family or it could be sharing your experiences with the world through pictures and videos. Another gratification could be finding information easily and quickly using things such as the internet. The Internet allows the improvement of travel agencies and tour operators by speeding up communication and providing all the necessary information. Radio broadcasts can provide real-time information, broadcast-ed 24 hours a day to provide the most recent updates to listeners. Stations have the ability to reach across borders and become a source of information where reliable news is scarce. Even electricity is not a necessity for battery operated and hand-cranked radios.
