Mass media

Mass media is any of the means of communication, like television or newspapers that reach a vast number of people. These means include various technologies usually used to transmit news of social interest or relevant news for a large number of people, transmitted in an impersonal and generalized manner to many individuals. These means of communication sometimes called "social media" can also be used for messages that are not necessarily the transmission of news related to current affairs, so they can be used in a similar way to how the comic or the story is used. Cinema that although they transmit socially relevant messages. They are not used for informative news of daily events. Also, several critics have pointed out that there are biases in the media that affect religious or ethnic minorities (see: Racial bias in the criminal news in the United States and in Islamophobia in the media ). During the nineteenth century, the "boom" of information quickly advanced due to postal systems, increased accessibility of newspapers, as well as schools of "modernization." The information revolution is based on modern advances. The change in timing based on innovation and efficiency may not have a direct correlation with technology.

Written press

Newspapers are written means of communication, which owe their name to be written periodically at fixed time intervals. Thus, newspapers, weeklies, and yearbooks were types of daily, weekly and annual periodic publications. The newspapers, due to their high periodicity, have been used basically for everyday issues and to a lesser extent for the analysis of relevant social issues. On the other hand, the weeklies focus on some outstanding social issues that are analyzed in greater depth and in which many less important facts of daily life are left aside. With the advent of the internet, many newspapers were also published electronically, sometimes exclusively electronically. Although to a large extent the daily periodicity was preserved, in some cases updates being offered whose periodicity is less than 24 hours. Some scientific publications are also periodical publications, but they are not for the transmission of information about daily events but on scientific and social issues of interest, as well as the publication of the original research carried out by highly specialized people.

Social networks

Within the variety of forms of communication based on the internet, some virtual social networks such as Twitter and Facebook. They have proven to work as ways used by a large number of individuals to stay informed about daily events, and even as a means of filtering and selecting relevant messages. In such media there may be the exchange of information on daily news together with other types of messages more typical of entertainment media; However, there is no communicative process where the man exchanges that information face to face to discuss it and reach an analysis on the subject. This is reaffirmed by Chang (2015) when he mentions that "few studies have explored how people have affected the way they interact with others in social networks, such as Facebook (FB) -where 1 billion users have generated more than 1,13 billion lines, they established 140,1 data that reaffirm that social networks are only a means of information, but not of communication. Many of the users of Facebook are teenagers, who in search of friends and information of their reality, come to "copy" the stereotypes, development patterns and ways of socializing " 2 that are proposed in these social networks. All people are going to be a means of communication in itself.

Interpersonal communication media

Postal mail

The letters and the epistolary exchange in paper format was one of the first means of interpersonal communication at a distance. For centuries it was the only means of distance communication between individuals, and with the advent of more immediate, fast and efficient technologies, the use of letters and missives has been greatly reduced. Currently, they are used largely for the transmission of purely advertising messages and official communications.

Telephone

The telephone is a device designed to transmit using electrical signals the conversation between two or more people at the same time in different places. The phone was created by Antonio Meucci in 1877. For a long time, Alexander Graham Bell was considered the inventor of the telephone. However Bell was not the inventor of this device, but only the first to patent it.

Fax

Fax (facsimile abbreviation), sometimes called telecopy, is the telephone transmission of printed, scanned material (both text and images), usually to a telephone number connected to a printer or other output device. The original document is scanned with a fax machine, which processes the contents (text or images) as a single fixed graphic image, converting it into a bitmap, the information is transmitted as electrical signals through the telephone system.

Email

The electronic mail (abbreviated e-mail or e-mail ) shares some of the characteristics of the old epistolary exchange, although given the form of electronic transmission the time elapsed between successive communications tends to be much smaller, so that new forms have emerged of using e-mail that could not be used in a typical epistolary exchange. In fact, e-mail for its immediacy shares some typical features that interpersonal communication usually has over the telephone. It is a method of media
