 * A**. By considering your answers to the above, give two important characteristics that mass media products have in common:
 * 1) - Mass media is informative
 * 2) - Mass media is also very wide spread giving information from around the world

Why do you use it? I use Instagram everyday. I use Instagram because it keeps me updated on everything going on with my friends and it helps me stay in touch with people I don't see anymore. (Comment: Interesting. This is one social media that I have not gotten into.)
 * B**. Name one mass media product that you consume regularly at least once a week.

I could not live without the news. The reason I could not live without the news is because it keeps me updated on everything going on and without it I would have no clue what to wear for the weather
 * C**. Is there any media product that you feel you could not live without? If so, say what it is and why it is so important to you.

Media influences my life by keeping me updated not only on what my friends are doing, but also on important things going on like with the weather, if there is a hurricane, bad traffic,or major things happening in politics.
 * D**. How do you think that media influences the way in which you live your life? Give examples of this.
