Quotes For Media Literacy
Media affects our lives deeply. So we have to know abaut positive things, but also negative effects. We are surrounded by too many information and this isuea is a real problem for us.We sould use the medai, and also we have to learn how to use the media.
Of course, this is a serious issue; so that I have tried to gather some quotes from famous people:
“The most successful marketer becomes part of the lives of their followers. They follow back. They wish happy birthday. They handle problems their customers have with products or service. They grow their businesses and brands by involving themselves in their own communities.”Marsha Collier, speaker and business author"Whoever controls the media, controls the mind."Jim Morrison
"The media is the right arm of anarchy".
Dan Brown
"The media's the most powerful entity on earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent, and that's power. Because they control the minds of the masses."
Malcolm X
“Social media is not a media. The key is to listen, engage, and build relationships.”
"The people will believe what the media tells them they believe."George Orwell
"All media exist to invest our lives with artificial perceptions and arbitrary values."Marshall McLuhan
“If you make customers unhappy in the physical world, they might each tell 6 friends. If you make customers unhappy on the Internet, they can each tell 6,000 friends.”
Jeff Bezos, CEO at Amazon.com
What is
important to understand is that media literacy is not about
"protecting" kids from unwanted messages. Although some groups urge
families to just turn the TV off, the fact is, media are so ingrained in our
cultural milieu that even if you turn off the set, you still cannot escape
today's media culture. Media no longer just influence our culture. They ARE our
culture.
Media literacy, therefore, is about helping students become
competent, critical and literate in all media forms so that they control the
interpretation of what they see or hear rather than letting the interpretation
control them.
To
become media literate is not to memorize facts or statistics about the media,
but rather to learn to raise the right questions about
what you are watching, reading or listening to. Len Masterman, the acclaimed
author of Teaching the Media, calls it "critical
autonomy" or the ability to think for oneself.
Without
this fundamental ability, an individual cannot have full dignity as a human
person or exercise citizenship in a democratic society where to be a citizen is
to both understand and contribute to the debates of
the time.
