Article Three & Four

Week Eight-Topic Six

Article 3: This article only focuses slightly on the topic we are to discuss, which is "New" Media. I disagree with the statement that TV is the still the most dominant media form, I believe music, as well as the internet are just as dominant. However, the point the writers make of major adolescant identity formation being formed by the internet, I believe that all forms of media influence young people.

Article 4: A point in this article that I found could be debated is that because the field of New Media is young, the writer believes that there is not much discussion in the field. However, I believe about "New" Media is that everytime a newer form of media happens, there is the same excitment, confusion and so on (such as when TV was invented). Therefore the same theories and views can be applied to the "New Media" we are discussing.
