Print gobbledygook
Question 3
"Explain how cultural contexts influence the ways audiences interact with print and/or online news."
How does the UK consume news
The audience demands it
Online news allows for more interaction
"What has happened in our culture in the last 30 years that may have influenced how we interact with print and online newspapers?"
Thanks to recent digital advancements and convergence, we are now able to become prosumers instead of consumers, and can make content or share our options with others about certain print and online newspapers. An example of this is comment sections on online newspapers, in which people can write about their opinions on the newspapers itself, and share them with others that may or may not agree.
People now have shorter attention spans due to advancement of technology, and as a result interact with print and online newspapers more, as they constantly want a stream of news.
Faster internet means that people no longer need to dial up.
Environmental awareness has led to many people avoiding the purchase of newspapers or paper based media.
Media Blog Introduction
Introduction My name is Ben Metcalfe, and I am a media student. This blog will document my work and what I get up to in Media Studies. My favorite film is Hot Fuzz, because it tells a funny story, and is not without excitement, action, and courage. A few actors in this move also take the lead role in another film, "Shaun Of The Dead". This is also a great movie, and maybe my #2. My favorite series is Friday Night Dinner, because it is extremely funny, and features a lot of great actors. Each episode brings something new and original to the table, generating a fantastic viewing experience. My favorite music video is Crying Lightning on YouTube, by Arctic Monkeys; this is because I love Arctic Monkeys and the video includes many cool effects. I am most likely to read the Times newspaper, as it is the most trustworthy to me.
