I have had experiences with each one of these different types of mass media. I would say my favorite are books, newspaper articles, movies, and the internet. I have used different newspaper articles and other internet sources to find out information about the media.
I like the availability of internet because of how resourceful it can be. It's quite a useful media resource.
Magazines and radio are probably the two sources of media that I use the least. I personally do not listen to the radio for media information. I also discredit a lot of the news resources on television because I believe a lot of their information is misrepresented.
I think we live in a very convenient time where we have access to so many different sources of information. I feel that a portion of the media has a different influence than its intention on our society and gullible as we are there are several of us willing to buy into it.
I currently have a job that is related to mass media. I work at HP Pavilion as a parking attendant. It is our local event center where the San Jose Sharks play their hockey season. Their games broadcast on television and provide a source of entertainment to its viewers. They have a huge impact on the media because they are professional team and they have a huge fan base.
If I was asked to get another job more closely related to the media I would probably have to decline. I enjoy working outside, with my hands, rather than focus on something related to the media.

I agree. Access to media is more convenient than it's ever been.
