The amount of interaction with media isn’t too surprising, because media has always been around our generation and it’s what we’ve become accustomed to. The exposure to media I do believe is a bit too much, as for celebrity media…we don’t need it, our societies should give some people privacy for once. Media such as important issues occurring around the globe such as global warming, that is the kind of media that is important to everyone, not the media telling you that Britney Spears went to the grocery store.
