The Media and Information Sources
The Media as Information source
One of the primary roles media plays is to inform. From news to current affairs to lifestyle subjects, weather reports to celebrity updates, educational subjects to recreational details and more, the whole array of data the media offers make it an invaluable source of information. The Library of Virginia explains that Information can come from virtually anywhere – media, blogs, personal experiences, books, journal and magazine articles, expert opinions, encyclopedias, and web pages – and the type of information you need will change depending on the question you are trying to answer.
