I think that everyone has a limited reality to start off with. The media that we engage in definately alters the pictures our head that we have. Most of us for the most part engage in a certain type of media more than others. This as a result limits the reality that we live in. By only using a certain media more than others we are limiting ourselves to the possibilities of different pictures being produced in our minds. A lot of us do not engage in a media that shows us the happenings of around the world. Maybe the usage of more media such as newspapers, the news, or even books could aid us in broadening our reality. I think that if I, myself, engaged in using these types of media more then I could be more aware of things that are happening around me that I don’t realize are going on. Sometimes i feel like Westminster can be a bubble. That most of us get caught up in this little bubble we have here and we don’t seem to realize what is really going on around us outside of this bubble.
It is also importatn to look at the messages that are being sent to us by the media. The gatekeepers of these messages have the power to influence you. These gatekeepers can determine the bias or influence that a message can have that you are recieving. It is important to try to not let these gatekeepers alter the true meaning of the message that is being sent to you.
I think that most people easily believe what they are told by gatekeepers in the media. It is important for people to not give into what is told to them because most of the time there is more to the story than what is being told. The stereotypes in our heads and past experiences allow us to navigate the media and the world. It is up to us to determine what we choose to believe or not believe.
