I have been involved with the media since I have known my self. When I was just a kid I used to consume lots of cartoons. I nearly new all the episodes of Nickelodeon’s cartoons. I really liked the channel because it had nearly no commercials which I found really boring those days. but as I grew my media expectations changed. I started to like movies and news and my hate against the commercials increased. Now a days I watch minimum amount of TV because of the commercials. İnstead I prefer consuming my media from the internet but the truth is I couldn’t get away from the commercials because every site has an advertisement in it or every film promotes a product. The only better thing about internet advertisements is that it doesn’t consume my time by airing for 10-20 minutes like advertisements. Another reason that I consume my media from the internet is that when media is consumed over the internet I can filter the media that I want to receive. So the media over internet enables me to consume what ever I want.

Probably rhe most media source that is effecting is the hidden messeges on films. Because I consume lots of films. I watch 1 or 2 films each day (unless there is final exam ) and each film contains little small amount of adcertisment. I could detect most of them but there sure is some that I couldn’t which would effect me indrictly and I hate being influenced badly while doing one of my favorite hoby.
