    It is clear that the media could have a negative effect on the youth. According to this online source entitled "What Effect Does Media Have on Youth," the media could come with potential health problems for younger people. The following is bookmarked from the above URL search: "*The more sexual content that kids see on television, the earlier they initiate sexual activity, the more likely they are to regret their early sexual experiences, and the more likely they are to have an unplanned teen pregnancy. *There is a strong causal connection between youth exposure to violence in the media and violent or aggressive behavior and thoughts. *Children are exposed to nearly 300 alcohol commercials per year. Similarly, more than 80 percent of movies depict alcohol use. *The motives movie characters convey for smoking can adversely affect adolescents' real-world smoking risk." ("What Effect Does Media Have on Youth?) This shows that the media could be good; however, we cannot over look the potential harms caused by the media.

  • But to hazard a guess based on clear evidence that media representations influence teenage eating, smoking and drinking habits, adolescents are almost certainly affected — negatively — by sexual references and images from television, in movies and video games, in music, in magazines and on Web sites.

      having sex at a young age only seems to be more common now then it was before which is something that parents should be aware of
  • The effect of abstinence-only education pales by comparison with the many graphic messages that portray sexual activity — especially unprotected sex outside of marriage — to be a part of our culture as normal and acceptable as eating a Big Mac or drinking a Coke.
  • Each year, nearly 900,000 teenage girls in the United States become pregnant (340,000 are 17 or younger). The rates of sexually transmitted diseases are higher among teenagers than among adults, and 35 percent of girls have been pregnant at least once by age 20.

  • The sexual content of TV is pervasive and increasing.
  • "On average," it continued, "each hour of programming popular with teens had 6.7 scenes that included sexual topics."
  • As for the Internet, one national survey of 10- to-17-year-olds found that one in five had "inadvertently encountered explicit sexual content, and one in five had been exposed to an unwanted sexual solicitation while online."

      Can be both negative and positive
  • In some disadvantaged settings, healthy television habits may actually be a beneficial teaching tool (
  • The average child sees 12,000 violent acts on television annually, including many depictions of murder and rape.
  • Television viewing makes a substantial contribution to obesity because prime time commercials promote unhealthy dietary practices
  • Television exposes children to adult sexual behaviours in ways that portray these actions as normal and risk-free, sending the message that because these behaviours are frequent, ‘everybody does it’. Sex between unmarried partners is shown 24 times more often than sex between spouses (32–35), while sexually transmitted infections and unwanted pregnancy are rarely mentioned.
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
      Adrianna Czerlonko on 01 Apr 14
       
      Many youths are not properly educated on what the outcomes are from committing unsafe sex
  • Television can also contribute to eating disorders in teenage girls, who may emulate the thin role models seen on television (8). Eating meals while watching television should be discouraged because it may lead to less meaningful communication and, arguably, poorer eating habits

      Currency because this information is updated and new. This type of information will lately change in the future in some way, but this article has updated it recently.
  • Commercials for healthy food make up only 4% of the food advertisements shown during children’s viewing time
  • On an annual basis, teenagers see between 1000 and 2000 beer commercials carrying the message that ‘real’ men drink beer.
  • One-half of the G-rated animated feature films available on videocassette, as well as many music videos, show alcohol and tobacco use as normative behaviour without conveying the long term consequences of this use

      Adrianna Czerlonko on 01 Apr 14
       
      This causes parents to spend more money on what children want because they believe that if their friends have it, they have to get it as well.
  • A number of studies have documented that children under the age of eight years are developmentally unable to understand the difference between advertising and regular programming
  • The average child sees more than 20,000 commercials each year (12). More than 60% of commercials promote sugared cereals, candy, fatty foods and toys

      Accuracy because the information is giving reasonable data that has been researched and studied upon.

      parents must realize that they do play a huge role in what their child watches!
  • Music videos may reinforce false stereotypes.

    • Adrianna Czerlonko

      technology is constantly improving and parents should want to learn how to use the new technology so that they can keep up with their children and know what their children are doing
  • Music lyrics have become increasingly explicit, particularly with references to sex, drugs and violence.
  • Some video games may help the development of fine motor skills and coordination, but many of the concerns about the negative effects of television (eg, inactivity, asocial behaviour and violence) also apply to excessive exposure to video games.
  • Up to 75% of videos contain sexually explicit material (45), and more than half contain violence that is often committed against women. Women are portrayed frequently in a condescending manner that affects children’s attitudes about sex roles.
  • The effect of violent video games on children has been a public health concern for many years.
  • The Internet has a significant potential for providing children and youth with access to educational information, and can be compared with a huge home library. However, the lack of editorial standards limits the Internet’s credibility as a source of information.
  • Parents can use technology that blocks access to pornography and sex talk on the Internet, but must be aware that this technology does not replace their supervision or guidance.

  • The little Vietnamese girl Kim Phuc ran away from her napalm-bombed village of Trang Bang, past the lens of cameraman Alan Downes, and into the whole world’s awareness of USA’s war in Southeast Asia. The Vietnam War became impossible to wage in the age of television.

      Authority and Accuracy: This was a live event caught on camera in Vietnam. It showed how real war is and the media exposed the world to what was going on at the time. 
  • FORM AND CONTENT. There’s a common logic in media: That which suits television is aired on television; if something makes a good headline, it’s placed on the front page of the newspaper.   In this way, media shapes society. Media technology determines the content. And the content in media determines images of society. But perhaps it’s not that simple. The interaction between technological, political and commercial forces can be significantly more complex

  • The development of newspapers is closely tied to the emerging formation of political parties in Europe and North America. Henry Jarvis Raymond, a journalist and politician, founded the New York Times in 1851. He was a Whig, that is, he belonged to the political party that was the forerunner of today’s Republican Party, and the establishment of the newspaper was, in part, a political project.

  • A more reflective consideration of the relationship between media and society might find this simple marketing analysis lacking in substance. The Swedish media researcher Göran Bolin  writes, in a paper on libraries, that it isn’t “a question of society being ‘mediafied’ through the transformation of information but, rather, that society itself is enclosed in human communication, in the way we all communicate with each other.”

      Kyle Palandech on 23 Apr 14
       
      Relevance: This explains how media and society intertwine with each other and how media researchers today still are looking at how it affects the world. 
  • Those of us active in media will look for the influence of new technology on media and media structure, not least because the effects in this area of society have been so tangible. The new technology affects media and media structure directly. In the next steps toward the further development of Internet society, changes in the entire production order could be the most important. The effects on media and media structure might then be more indirect—but not necessarily of lesser impact.

  • If there is anything recent elections have proven, it’s that reaching out to voters online is not only important, it’s essential. The first notable use of social media to rally the voting community was during the 2008 Presidential election, when the Obama campaign took to the web to draw out the young vote. According to research by the Pew Foundation, 83 percent of 18-24 year-olds had social networking accounts in 2008, and two-thirds of those used those sites for political activity at that time.

  • Though social media has certainly changed the face of political campaigns, it has not replaced other traditional forms of communication. “It’s additive,” says Greenberg. What she means is that having a social media campaign does not mean politicians can forego television and radio commercials. Greenberg also emphasizes that in-person rallies and town halls are an essential component of campaigns and that these venues won’t go away just because people spend more time online.
