Here’s a question I’ve been thinking about a lot lately:
How would you rank each of the following forms of media in order of Influence over society? For example, which medium do you believe affects the most opinions of people over elections and public opinion?
Please rank them in the order.
Here is my stab:
[ol]
[li]Television (including their websites)[/li][li]Internet Video (YouTube etc)[/li][li]Radio (including their websites)[/li][li]Newspapers (including their websites)[/li][li]Magazines (including their websites)[/li][li]The text based Blogosphere (non corporate blogs)[/li][li]Twitter[/li][li]Online Forums[/li][li]Speaking from a soapbox on a street corner .[/li][/ol]
Since every television, radio, newspaper, and magazine do have websites (and blogs), I lump those websites and blogs with their primary media type. Make sense?
What do you think?
