Question:
A Day Without Electronic Media
We live in a media-saturated world, yet most of us don't consider the effect it has on our lives. According to Danna Walker, Professor of Communications at American University, "Many of you are what researchers call "millennials", those born between 1980 and 2000. Your generation will constitute the largest generation in American history. You will outnumber baby boomers by as much as 33%. Most of you grew up with computers and television in your home. You started life with VCR's, CD's, digital video, and MP3s. You were the first generation to link up to cell phones, instant messaging, and texting. Personal computers came of age when you were born and you grew up with the World Wide Web and e-mail. Not to mention Nintendo, Game Boy, Sony PlayStation, GameCube and Xbox. Yet although you are emotionally attached, educated, and savvy consumers of electronic media you don't think much about it."
