Media
Media has an impact on everything you do. The way you dress, the way you view people, and the way you talk are all influenced by the media. TV violence causes people to be violent. Advertising media builds our culture. Some argue that media does not have the larger impact, but rather that it is learned behavior.
Media violence has made its mark on the way people interact. Violence in shows is portrayed as glamorous and the characters often seem immortal or just get right back u p again. Media violence is not realistic. Brawls on television involve impossible stunts that should not be attempted by amateurs. Still some people do not realize they should not try.

Media culture defines what is “in” and decides how you must look and act to be “cool”” and fit in. Advertisers lure people, especially the younger generation into thinking that they absolutely must have this name-brand product or they will not be considered “cool.” Many do not realize they are being brainwashed, but, in their subconscious minds, they are judging people on how they look.
Although behavior learned from ones surroundings is a factor, the “environment” where one is always has some form of media in action. When people go for a drive, radio is their choice of media. When cleaning they choose either radio or TV. Waiting in line at the checkout counter, we go for the tabloid newspapers and magazines.

I rewrote the violence paragraph
Media violence has made its mark on the way people interact. Violence in shows is portrayed as glamorous and the characters often seem immortal or just get right back u p again. Everyday a cartoon character is beat up, injured, or killed, only to return in the very next episode, good as new. (e.g. South Park.)Media violence is not realistic. Brawls on television involve impossible stunts that should not be attempted by amateurs. Still some people do not realize they should not try those stunts. Take, for example the murder of a child in Norway, the result of kids imitating Power Rangers or the countless cases of animal cruelty copied from “Beavis and Butthead,’ or the hospitalizations of kids trying to be like “Jackass” characters and doing things that would definitely injure them, all because they had seen it on TV.
