 In the 1920s the United States was still struggling with the effects of World War 1 and rebuilding its economic and social structures. Newspapers were the main source of information, but radio began to build an audience. Along with these new information and entertainment providers came the fear that the media could take over peoples minds and control the way they thought and behaved. many people thought of Media as a "magic bullet" or a "hypodermic needle" that could penetrate people's bodies and minds and cause them to all react the same way to a mediated message.

Now, media definitely has an impact or an effect on society today. For example, the 911 attack, media made it seem as if all Arabian people were terrorists. It made everyone look at Arabs differently. Its not just TV that effects how we act its also video games and music. Most video games that society plays today are violent games and those games definitely most peoples thoughts. The movies we watch has an effect on society as well. The difference between now and then is that our generation has more violent crimes than past generations because we are influenced by what we see in movies and video games and what we hear on the radio or in songs in general.

Hypodermic Needle Theory

I think that in the future we will still be effected by media. In the 1920s we were effected by media and almost a century later we are still effected by what we read, see, and hear. i think that in the future it will be worse because I dont think that people today know that they are being influnced or effected by media.

Chapter 7: Advertising

Then:

Advertising  has been around  since about 3000 B.C.E. Babylonian clay tablets have been found inscribed with the names of merchants. the ancient Egyptians used some form of paper that was much more portable than previously used clay tablets to advertise the arrivals of ships carrying various goods. The ancient Romans hung stone and terra-cotta signs outside their shops to advertise the goods sold inside. in 1450 Johannes Gutenberg came up with the invention of printing which gave people the idea of distributing printed advertisements.The growing popularity of news papers in the 1700s led to the further development of printing in advertising. Advertising took on a new role in the 1800s with the Industrial Revolution. In the 1920s, radio advertising seemed to boost product sales. advertising got its first glimpse of television in 1939 at the New York World's Fair. ( Norman  J. Medoff & Barbra Kaye)

advertising techniques

 Today advertising is seen just about everywhere. It is used widely throughout the world in many different forms and techniques. Advertising is used today on television, radio, billboards, newspapers, internet, vehicles, and even pops up on our phones. Its is still used for the same purpose, to promote a product. Not much has changed about advertising. For example, in the 1950s and 60s, famous television stars would make commercials about someones product to get consumers to buy it. Today we still use that same concept. Our society uses celebrities to promote and advertise the products that they want people to buy. Although much has not changed about advertisements there was still some type of change. Today most companies resort to product placement instead of buying commercial time. This is where companies pay to have their product used or visible within a TV show or a movie. Today advertising is different from advertising then because we have technology and resources that they didn't have many decades ago.


Later:

 I predict that advertising will take it to the next level. I think that one day soon if it hasn't happened already, that there will be advertisement in video games. I think that advertises will find a way to promote their product in every way imaginable. Future of Advertising

Chapter 4: Cable, Satellite, and Other Delivery Systems.

Then:

From the early days of television experimentation until the late 1970s, most people received television directly from the broadcast stations. Their television sets were attached to antennas that received the broadcast signal directly from the local television stations. Translators were not used used in the very early days of televisions, and many of the people who lived in areas far from big cities or where the television signal was blocked by hills or mountains couldn't receive television signals. In the late 1940s the FCC had difficulty assigning stations to frequencies or channels. There also were not that many franchises of cable companies around. ( Norman  J. Medoff & Barbra Kaye)

Now we barely use satellite dishes to watch television. Our society today uses cable lines and modems. The way we view cable now is different from how it was viewed years ago because we don't face the same  problems that people faced in the 70s. Our signals are more reliable and harder to block because most cable companies no longer use satellite dishes. Cable is different now from how it was in the 70's because we have multiple franchises and multiple cable companies. Our generation also uses digital video recorders. DVRs allow us to pause and rewind live TV. We also have the ability to re watch and record our favorite as many times as we desire. Our generation is different from previous generations because we have programs such as On Demand and Xfinity which allows us to to view a list of movies and shows scheduled to run on that station that we can watch as many times as we please. We also use cable for more than TV. We use it for phone lines and internet.


Later: 

I predict that in the future we will slowly but surely start to view cable a lot less because it costs so much. I think that cable will still be around because most people would need their cable company for their internet and land lines. According to this video  future of cable  more people spend time watching Netflix, Amazon, and Hulu because its costs less. They think that cable will still be around because they will have to drop their prices in order to get their customers back.

Chapter 1: Tuning in to Electronic Media

Then:

http://www.magnet.fsu.edu/education/tutorials/museum/images/1844-telegraph.jpg

The 19th century was a time of tremendous technological growth around the world. The Industrial Revolution, which began in England, took off in the United States just after the Civil War and continued into the early 1900's. A variety of communication technologies were invented along the way, in this country and abroad, all leading to the development of radio. Inventions such as the telegraph and the first radio. The first forms of communication were things such as the pony express. The invention of the telegraph paved the way for our modern communication. If it wasn't for Samuel Morse and his invention of the telegraph we probably wouldn't have the technology we have today to communicate. If it wasn't for the Alexander Graham Bell and his invention of the telephone we would not be able to communicate verbally for very long distances. ( Norman  J. Medoff & Barbra Kaye)

Today, we have multiple forms of communication. We use cell phones and tablets for just about every form of communication. Today, society uses cell phones and tablets for emailing, texting, video calling, video messaging and phone calls. Today our technology is so advanced that there is no need to use the telegraph or any of the other forms of primitive communication devices such as  pagers or instant messaging.

Later: In the future I predict that technology will be so advanced that there will no longer be a need for cell phones or  tablets or laptops. However, I think things will be like how they are in the movies. I think every form of media will be either a projection or a hologram. they already have phones that you don't have to touch to get the screen to move and they have phones that transfer data to each other by simply touching each other. I predict that kids our age will learn more about computers in elementary. I think that cell phones and tablets will never be used and the way we communicate with each other will change drastically.

While disco music was hitting the airwaves, Vinton Cerf, later known as the "father of the internet," and researchers at Stanford University and UCLA were developing packet switching technology and transmission protocols that allowed the internet to function. in the 1980s, the National Science Foundation took on the task of designing a network that became the basis for the Internet, as it's know today. At the same time, a group of scientists in the European Laboratory of Particle Physics headed by Tim Berners-Lee was developing a system for the worldwide interconnectivity that was later known as the worldwide web.  When the internet was first created its uses we limited and only certain people knew how to use it. to be connected to the internet you had to have a Ethernet cable connected to your PC.

Today, the internet is accessible to everyone one worldwide and it can be use for a variety of things from research, to informational videos, to even watching your favorite shows. To access the internet you can use various options such as Ethernet cables, wireless signals, and hotspots  The internet know is different from the internet when it was first created because its abilities are pretty much limitless. There isn't anything you cant do on the internet. You can upload videos, create blogs, play games, meet people, network, open chat rooms, email, video chat, and stream videos and music live. Today people use the internet as a news source. The internet can be used as a radio and a television. According to the book the internet is being used more than the television and the radio.






Later:  In the future I predict that we will somehow be able to literally surf the web. Our technology is rapidly advancing we already have phones that project holograms. I think we will be able to access the internet from anywhere at anytime and the government will always know where our location is. predict that we will have to

Chapter 3: Television

The Development of electronic television continued throughout  the 1930s and television made its debut at the New York's World's Fair in 1939. Television was introduced to the public by David Sarnoff and the presidential television address was given by President Franklin D. Roosevelt from the Worlds Fair. in 1941 the FCC advised by the National Television System Committee, adopted a standard operation: On July 1, 1941, commercial broadcasting began by FCC approval. Compared to radio television required much more bandwidth on the electromagnetic spectrum. Back then, most television sets were small with small screens with no color. the first colored TV was created and distributed in 1953. ( Norman  J. Medoff & Barbra Kaye)

 Television plays a major role in our society today. Television is used by everyone and with newspapers starting to slowly fade away television is our main source of gathering information. Today people spend more time watching television than ever before. The a comparison from our generation and the previous generations is that television is access able to just about everyone who has the money for it. We use television for a lot of things, mainly for entertainment and news. he difference between television then and now is that we have more advanced styles of TV. Our TV's are larger, have better quality, picture, sound and size. In the 1930's there were no smart TV's, 3D TVs or plasma screen TVs or LED TV's. We also no longer use antennas we use modems and DVRs.








Later:  In the I predict that future TV will no longer need cable or satellite to operate. I think every TV will come with its own frequencies to operate. I also predict that the sizes of the television will get even larger than what the already are. With the way our technology is advancing I think that sometime in the near future TV's will be able to create holograms to make a persons viewing experience more thrilling and suspenseful .
