The very first benefit is information. Nowadays the information can be useful for people. It is very important for everyone because there are lots of things happening every minute in the world which can affect our professional and private life. And it makes news accessible: just turn on the TV or look through news sites and you will be kept currently informed.
Another useful purpose is education. Many people gain knowledge from the Internet and TV programmes. It is an easy and affordable day to cultivate intelligence.
And what about drawbacks? One shouldnt rely on everything the newspapers say. Misrepresentations and bare-faced lie easily take place and misinform millions of people. Mass media can also manipulate the minds of the audiences.
Today we witness the influence of various sources of mass media on youth. Tons of meaningless TV-shows, glossy magazines and social networks steal young peoples time that could be spend on beneficial and healthy activities. They lose their own opinion and have nothing to say except the ideas heard from others.
To my mind we cant imagine our lives without mass media. It is silly to avoid it as we can use its advantages. Though we should be careful and filter all information we get. I do my best to stay informed about the latest events and I am fond of searching in the Internet. Mass Media is a part of my life.
