For me, I thought media was only a platform that we can use in order to communicate with others, some examples of this are Facebook, Twitter Instagram, etc.
But I was wrong, I learned that media has a lot of valuable information and not all that are on the internet are facts, some are fake news, biases and more.
I have learned that you should always think ahead before typing because there are many people who don't think twice and abusing the power of the media or internet.
For me, one of the most relevant function of media today is communicating, either to our loved ones, friends and family, and also to spread awareness like the Covid-19.
Media has been a great help now at this time of crisis because it has many benefits such as communicating to our loved ones even at our house to stay safe, or to spread awareness to other people who are diagnosed with Covid-19.
It has been our best friend since then before or after the pandemic started.
One recent situation that media and information became useful is in this time of the pandemic, many people have been affected and media helps us gather information in which we can have knowledge about this virus, some of these are the daily cases of Covid, the symptoms and more.
It has also provided us awareness and also helps us to keep motivated even when there are times in crisis.
Media and Information are a great help at our society especially nowadays.
