This took some serious thought for me. I think the most intriguing form of mass media was advertising. I was surprised at how it has worked its way into movies and television. I had never paid close attention to it before. Now when I view anything I notice right away if it is an advertised product being utilitzed. In fact the other night we were watching Rachel Ray on the Food Network and she was using Grey Poupon Mustard in a recipe. I will never see T.V. and movies the same way again.
As for the least intriguing mass media, I choose magazines. These are frivoulous to me and I very rarely look at them unless I am in a waiting room of some kind. If I want to read something news worthy or interesting there is the newspaper or the internet. I always glance at them in the grocery store checkout and am very surprised at the cost of them.
This class has taught me a lot about media and how it is part of so much of our lives. It has been a fun experience.
