Reflection on Types of Media

This topic is all about the types of media. The ones that are being used to spread and learn new information.
There are three types of media. The print media, broadcast media and digital or new media. The oldest media forms are newspapers, magazines, journals, newsletters, and other printed material. These publications are collectively known as the print media. Although print media readership has declined in the last few decades, many people still read a newspaper every day or a news magazine on a regular basis. The influence of print media is therefore significant. Regular readers of print media tend to be more likely to be politically active. The print media is responsible for more reporting than other news sources. Many news reports on television, for example, are merely follow-up stories about news that first appeared in newspapers. News paper, books, magazines, comics and brochures are some examples of print media. Broadcast media are medias that are used to spread information or news reports broadcast via radio and television. Media such as radio and television that reach target audience using airwaves as the transmission medium. Some examples of broadcast media are television, radio, satellites, mobile phones, movies/films. In digital and new media, the contents are organized and distributed on digital platforms. Example of this are internet, social media and computers.
