According to Covil, “Radio is the one media that has had the greatest impact on sports and the audience. There is no other form of the media that covers the different levels and varieties of athletics more than radio.” Radio has the abilities or skills that other media cannot match and the first connection is formed between the broadcasters and audience.
The mass media has become a big part of our society and its counterparts. In a time span of 50 years this medium has influenced society to an extent where it has created wonders. This immaculate tool can control almost every action we perform, from speaking to the actions that every human being performs in society. The mass media has brought upon a new era of idea's and changes in the world we live in. As we analysis media in depth we will find many aspects of media which overlap and some of the smallest factors and aspects of media, which create the biggest impact on society.
The course provides an introduction to the most prominent forms of media that influence and impact social, business, political, and popular culture in contemporary America. It explores the unique aspects of each medium as well as interactions across various media that combine to create rich environments for information sharing, entertainment, business, and social interaction in the U.S. and around the world.

First I would like to identify who the film includes on its radio broadcasts. There are essentially two types of people featured on the broadcast: the radio talk show host and his co-commentator and his callers. The first use of radio in the film is that of a radio talk show, hosted by “Slam and Sammy,” that focuses primarily on the Permian Panthers’ football team. Also featured on the show are callers that are most likely from the local community surrounding the support of the Panthers. It is not made clear until halfway through the film at the start of a football game that Slam and Sammy are also the commentators for the football games and that the games are broadcast, most likely on the same radio station. We are made aware of this fact around fifty minutes into the film when we hear, “You’re back with mojo radio. It is Slam and Sammy.” In trying to detect the difference between the announcers, the voice we hear the most seems to be the main host, while the other voice (it is slightly unclear who is Slam and who is Sammy) seems to be more of a color commentator that allows the lead announcer to do most of the talking.

As America headed into the 1980s, two decades of social and political upheaval have left the nation rattled and the economy weakened. The Iran hostage crisis shook America's confidence and many looked for a new kind of leader to steer the country into the new decade. Ronald Reagan led America into a new era of prosperity leaving the soul-searching of the 60s and 70s behind. The nation was ready to enjoy itself and with plenty of new toys to play like VCRs and video games, Americans spent more time at home and soon something called cable TV would make it even harder to leave the living room. With the new innovation of the TV, one of the ideas for a channel was a marriage between music and television. This new idea for a channel devoted to something called music videos would end up revolutionizing and often scandalizing an industry that had no choice but to embrace the fact that music in the 1980s had to have a face with videos. By having these music videos, they would change the way we look at music and the way we look at the world. This cutting- edge idea was a new medium perfectly suited to a new generation and that idea was called, MTV. This leads to the question: How did MTV influence pop culture of the 1980’s? This topic is worthy of investigation because the coming of MTV has had a significant impact on the way people see pop culture. Before researching the topic, the writer had limited knowledge on MTV and only knew about the music itself. In the paper, the writer was
During week one, my initial definition of learning was listening to an instruction, studying and then rehearsing that information in my mind, or categorizing it in a way so I could remember most of what was taught in the course. The class has opened a new dimension for me in the learning process; from understanding how I process information to deciphering which learning processes I use in intentional learning or metacognition. Understanding my learning patterns form dynamic learning relationship is a key element to my view of how and why I process the learning experience, even relating it to every day life.
