Jimmy's final essay

Hitting the new years, people are reminded how continuously they are hit with new problems. Problems that can be solved with local people, doing local things. When people collaborate, the possibilities are endless and can end to the solution needed for progress. How does media affect the solution of global problems, and what group is best to target for these solutions?

When applying for a Media related job, people who chose that job because of their passion are always receiving that paycheck at the end of that week. When I was brought to Boston so I could meet some of these people and ask them how they involve themselves with these problems and solutions.

The common answer that came from their mouths seemed to be with a positive attitude and supplying the hard facts, people will come to a sense knowing what is good and what isn’t. The nature of people is to follow with good, and so when in media they see that ad about cleaning up our environment, they can’t just go pollute.

If a true artist believes in his work, a viewer will be able to see it and is more likely to agree and interact with it. By supplying hard facts through Media, global solutions can be known worldwide and are much easier to take care of. A major problem right now is our Pollution throughout the world. In order to spread the knowledge through state-to-state, country to country, and continent to continent, Media is the number one source of being able to do that.

Without that source, even with the given information about our problem right now about the war on terrorism, what if they cannot get the news about where to signup for the army, or help promote the war. Many people, who view television, can often see ads for the army and the benefits for it. What if that didn’t exist, would you join the army? Does it increase your chance about joining? Either way, the knowledge is priceless, and that is spread through media.

A personal experience of my own is within my family. My mother, a great influence of mine, saw on television an ad asking people to help support local towns. Since that time, I’ve been influenced by her for whenever I go out to get that hair cut, whenever I go out to find my burger, I’ll do it in my town. Influenced by my mom, who was influenced by the media. How does that affect the globe? Incredibly. Small towns advancing at this time is an experiment that is going on everywhere. To help your small town locally is by using your own towns businesses.
