Hey everyone, I just got back from paddlefishing, and unfortunately i have caught anything yet, and will have to wait until Wednesday to go out and have another try. This actually brings me to my topic, media is necessary. The reasoning behind this, we need the media to tell us what is new, what is going on in the world, and also how many paddlefish have been caught, so i can get out their and catch my fish before the 1000 limit is close. Around Williston on May 1st they start announcing how many paddlefish have been caught about every 6 hours, as their are people from many different states, and they announce this on the daily news, across radio, and the paper (with a picture of some lucky guy and the big fish). We need media to stay informed, and be on top of world news, local news, and my favorite new products such as movies and items.
They also use media to advertise for stores, as we all know we switch the channel once the bulk of commercials comes across the radio. There is a new ice cream store opening in town, serving new things, I finally heard about them on the radio because they are giving free sundaes away on Sunday! Information and Advertising are key in media, then we go to the recreational side, which can be unnecessary. Like my favorite tv show Heroes, it isnt necessary, but i sure do like it a lot. We get back to why media is necessary, the sole point is to stay informed about what is going on around us. The recreation is a plus, the tube makes its money from commercials, and the rest is considered information to keep citizens in the know, especially my paddlefish count when the season opens. It's been about 3 days and they are already in the 200's meaning only a couple of days left to get out their and not procrastinate.
