Script
Think about how you start your day. You might check social media for updates from friends or news. You might listen to your favorite songs while getting ready, or maybe watch a quick video during breakfast. On the way to school, you might notice ads on buses or the latest trends on social media. Each of these moments is a way that media shows up in your life — whether it’s entertainment, ads, or news.
What is Media?
The word media comes from the root “medium,” which means a way of communicating. Media includes everything from news and art to education and entertainment — all the ways people share information. We experience media daily, including TV shows, music, books, magazines, and everything we see online. Through all of these things, we get messages that influence how we see and understand the world around us.
