Media Log: Summary

After analyzing my media habits, I have discovered just how much of a role media plays in my life. I now realize the most common way I stay in touch with friends is through Facebook. Between shuttle rides to and from campus, and work out sessions at the gym, I listen to my iPod almost six hours per week. While driving, I never listen to the radio, because my iPod is always plugged in. I watch about 10 hours of television per week. Add about five hours of video game play and that's about 15 hours per week spent in front of the TV. When I catch up with the news, I never read a paper. My news is delivered through iPhone apps and websites. It's scary to think how much of a role media plays in my life.
