Media is the main means of mass communication e.g. social media, broadcast media, print media, outdoor media.

Media studies is the field of study that deals with the content of various types of media.

The point of media studies is to communicate with others and some types of media make profit like the newspaper. 

I’m on this course because I want to know more about how to examine media language e.g. why headlines are written like they are.

Also I want to learn how to compare how the different types affect the public differently.
