Entry # 5 Media and I

Since talking about media in class, I have been noticing different types of media and different things going on in the media today. Recently I have been looking more closely at ad's. Big ones and little ones, but I find the same commonality in each, those ad companies are sneaky and good at it. We recently watched to coca-cola commercial and that's what got me thinking, "if there are using coke to do this selective advertising, what else could they be using". More and more companies are taking the facts and twisting them to get consumers to buy their products and what not. Although for them it is a good strategies, it is unfair to the population to not really know the true facts.
Media is a huge impact on almost everyone lives. Media and social networking are everywhere and not finding either of them is rare. It is like a virus you can't get rid of so if you can't beat them join them. I find my self using my phone to use Facebook  Google  the internet and everything under the sun. There is just no getting away from this stuff. Social media is not only used for advertising, but to displaying feelings of all sorts. Now a days you can put just about anything in a post from your feelings, to where you are or even what your doing. Its amazing to think how many people just put it all out there, but hey if they want life as an open book for people to read that's their choice. I constantly see media and look at it differently now and I try to find the hidden message in their that the companies don't want the population to see.
