description | This work aims at analysing the role of mass media in contemporary families, the
influence that news have on our perception of reality and on the behaviour of the members
of a contemporary society. More specifically, it intends to analyse the influence of mass
media on the Gladney family's perception of reality and behaviour in White Noise (1985)
by Don LeLillo, and the influence of mass media on Henry Perowne's perception of reality
and behaviour in Saturday (2005) by Ian McEwan.
Mass media is communication—whether written, broadcast, or spoken—that reaches a
large audience. This includes television, radio, movies, the Internet, newspapers,
magazines, and so forth. The Modern man is immersed in a society that depends on
information and communication to keep moving and doing their daily activities.
Contemporary life cannot be imagined without mass media. Members of any segment of
society are constantly exposed to the media. Mass media has become a daily and essential
necessity to the contemporary man. Almost every house in the civilized world features a
TV set which is constantly on, playing an important role in the family, not only as a form
of entertainment but also as a means of information. |
