Negative Influence of Media on Society
Posted By Greg Hankerson On 6th September 2006 @ 01:50 In Happiness, Depression | 114 Comments
With my quest for inner peace and my search for true happiness, I began to analyze everything I did during my day that could influence me. I won’t bore you with my entire day, but I discovered that a huge part of it is spent listening to, watching and reading media. Media being defined as all the means of communication, like newspapers, radio, internet, and TV that provide the public with news, entertainment, etc., usually along with advertising.
I get up in the morning and drink my coffee while scanning Yahoo news. Without fail, it is mostly negative. I turn on the TV a few times during the day and I’m bombarded with advertisements for junk food, fast food, beer, and stuff that I don’t need. I drive to the office and I hear commercials on the Radio for the same. I see billboards showing me an anorexic looking female modeling clothes. I pass the McDonalds and see the golden arches in front which says below a bizillion served. The parking lot is full of overweight people with sodas in one hand and a bag in the other. I go to the grocery store and see several of the products I saw advertised. Coke is on sale and piled up in the front of the store. I remember that there are nearly 10 teaspoons of sugar in everycan, so I resist buying a twelve pack. I look at my shopping cart and it has actual advertisements for junk food on it. I check out and see a dozen various tabloids talking of the latest diet or gossip. The back of my receipt appears to have a coupon for McDonalds.
Geez, these ads are everywhere, instructing me to eat food that will eventually kill me, drink booze, buy crap I don’t need, and to try the latest fad diet. With all of this bombardment, it’s no wonder my mood teeder todders up and down as well as my health, bank balance, and weight. I now see why I sometimes have this irresistable urge to drink a Coke on a hot day or get McDonalds on Fridays. I’ve seen THOUSANDS of advertisements for both of those products over my lifetime. And why is that? Well, repetition sells. That’s why many ads repeat things over in the same commercial. If you hear something enough, it becomes true in your mind. If the news says the world is going to hell everyday, you’ll begin to think the world is.
I’m an adult with some life experience, just imagine how kids are influenced. Childhood obesity is becoming a huge problem. [1] As of 2000, 15% of kids ages 6 - 19 were obese. 10% of 2 to 5 year olds are overweight. Various experts theorized that the media may have contributed to this in the following ways:
The hyperlink above references 40 studies that back this up.
And as of 2001, [2] 60 million adults have been classified as obese with 9 million severly obese. And these numbers are still rising.
So what is the answer to fix this problem? I don’t know. But I have made some changes in my life that have helped the situation.
You are what you eat. This also holds true to what you feed your mind. Feed it news of despair, celebrity gossip, junk food ads and pictures of anorexic models, and you might sink to new lows. Feed it empowering, positive, uplifting fuel and you will rise to new heights.

I do not believe that your site is credible, and in fact I believe that some of your ways of dealing with it are a little overprotective. I also think that media influences society in bad ways, but many people can resist the temptation to buy something they saw on a commercial, so even though I partially agree with what you say, I still think a lot of this is a load of you know what.
#2 Comment By Greg Hankerson On 22nd January 2007 @ 08:19
Most people in society do not believe what I say. And that is fine. But I think repetition does something to people’s minds. Why is America the fattest country? Maybe it’s the constant advertising for fast foods and junk foods? Why do we have such crime rates? Maybe it has something to do with the glorifying of violence by the media? If I see thousands of murders in movies and TV, all before the age of 16, will that influence me to murder? Probably not, but it very well may make me more violent.
Here is a quote from [3] Psychological Science In The Public Interest: Well-supported theory delineates why and when exposure to media violence increases aggression and violence. Media violence produces short-term increases by priming existing aggressive scripts and cognitions, increasing physiological arousal, and triggering an automatic tendency to imitate observed behaviors. Media violence produces long-term effects via several types of learning processes leading to the acquisition of lasting (and automatically accessible) aggressive scripts, interpretational schemas, and aggression-supporting beliefs about social behavior, and by reducing individuals’ normal negative emotional responses to violence (i.e., desensitization).
Yes, people can resist. And my way of resisting is to not subject myself to the thousands of daily images that go against what I want in my life. Thanks for reading and commenting! I really do appreciate your view.

It is true that when it comes to media and it’s negative influence most people default into the defence mode. I think the reason for this is the the influence of media itself. The truth of the matter is that the negative effects of media are more than we are aware of and I am not even sure if we will ever get to know all of them. If it is important to anyone to have control over their behavior and thinking process then they should be very careful what they allow enterence into their minds; conscious and subconscious. The mind is an avenue to the soul and must be guarded jealously, what one puts in it is all that can come out of it.

Very true, garbage in, garbage out. Or you are what you eat. That’s why I don’t pay much attention to most media. I was reading a book, Running From Safety, and the character Richard was talking to Dickie about how the weatherman was saying it was supposed to storm, hail, earthquake, Tsunami, etc., but he went flying anyways. Because the only weather he cares about is that which is from his wingtip to wingtip, and the tail to prop. All the other weather going on is for those people there, not him. Thanks for the comment Israel.

Interesting. soem of the methods i understand on a personal level but watching a program without listening to the ads still gives ratings to that slot meaning more ads. your right about crap being pumped out into every available aspect of life.
#6 Comment By Greg Hankerson On 23rd October 2007 @ 08:05
When I watch or listen to commercials now, I ask myself, what are they trying to sell to me and what marketing techniques are they using. This seems to lessen the need I get to buy their product. But yes, television and radio is driven by ads. But that doesn’t mean “I” need to watch, listen, or buy their stuff. I must admit, sometimes I am swayed. Like recently by a P90X infomercial. However, their product is working well so I’d like to think I made a smart buying decision. Which reminds me, it’s time for me to workout!

I feel that some if not most of what you said is correct. I feel that the bigger problem is the media as a whole. They all make money from advertisers and customers. To increase there audience (to make more money) they word things to sell more subscriptions, papers, gain notoriety and to catch the listeners attention. I can keep writing and complain but I don’t have that much time so I’ll say this; Our society will continue to spiral in this direction until someone comes up with a capitalistic approach (a niche in the market) to combat this problem. The media GIANTS are so powerful and influential that they managed to; persuade the public to support the invasion of Iraq, campaign to have themselves embedded in Iraq to report the facts, twist the purpose of why we are there (WMD vs 17 resolutions broken, the shooting at our planes in the agreed upon northern and southern no fly zones, etc), only blame the Republicans when there were no WMD found (even though there was repo’s demo’s and indy’s supporting it plus other countries because of the world wide intel agency’s reporting identical presumed facts), only show death and destruction in pre, post, and real-time, not show a fair amount of liberation and reconstruction efforts, and even use that misinformation as a basis to exert their opinion about the latest IAEA report about Iran. Good Luck to all who try to slice and dice info from the misinfo!!

okay, so I read this as part of a research paper that I’m doing right now. I agree with it but I’d like to briefly point out something.
If i offer you a Coke (a brand name you’ve seen most of your life and almost everyday) or Kola (a product that looks and tastes very similar to coke) which one would you buy? Even if ‘Kola’ is cheaper you’re more likely to buy Coke. And i know this first hand. Most consumers that walk through my line won’t buy something that hasn’t seen advertised.

#10 Comment By Angelica Marie On 25th February 2008 @ 17:47
I believe this is pretty true. Even though these are simply opinions they are accurate. Pay attention to the way you react to the news and commercials. You hear about murders and sexual assaults on tv and automatically you begin to breathe a little faster and your heart starts to beat harder. Then you hear about how in the town next to you there was an armed robbery. Now I bet your heart is really pounding. You’re probably also locking up your jewelry and doors and windows, sleeping with a gun in your drawer. Still believe they don’t control us? I have to say I spend maybe two hours a day paying attention to the media. And that’s simply because I attend college online and I’m forced to sit in front of a computer. Of course dating a musician doesn’t help my listening to the radio but when it comes to a commercial the station is typically changed at that point. Pay attention to the way your body reacts when you are watching the news. Its a subconscious effect they have on you and you don’t even know it until something close to you happens.
#11 Comment By Aigerim On 20th April 2008 @ 21:17
Good day! I would like to say that I have had a research on this particular topic and I found out that staistics of childrens’ obesity is growing up. from my point of view the real bad influence of the Tv and mass media will take place if a child is upbringed so. I mean the core reason for childrens’ problems with weitght is within the family and parents’ upbringing, their time spent on their children and their love and care given to them. usually teens and little kids watch much TV and later behave aggressively towards their family members and peers when they are left alone without any attention, and when their parents are busy with their work. unfortunately, today people are so surfeited with all these blood, crimes and violence, depravity and murders on TV that we I mean parents and their children take it for granted. it has become normal when little kids can easily see naked women and men in commercials and hear bad words on TV. I really don’t know where we are going and most importantly where our children are going and who they will become in the future. this problem’s solution is within parents’ hands and of those who really cares about the future generation. thank you for this post, love Aigerim.

Dear Deepika,
I would be happy to help you in any way that I can as long as I am telling the truth. I just emailed you but it was returned. You are more than welcome to reprint my article wherever you’d like. In fact I would be honored if people did so. I am really sorry to hear that your friend did that to you and that your career is in jeopardy.
I have a question though. You sent the article to him and he copied some of my blog into it. Were you and him working together on the article? Or was he helping you write it without telling your school? Because if it was supposed to be solely your work, and you used what you thought was his writtings, wouldn’t that in fact be plagurizing?
In any case, I would be happy to help if I can.
#15 Comment By Steven On 15th October 2008 @ 06:05
You’ve talked about media being a negative influence on a COMMERCIAL basis, all of the ads on tv and radio. But even by blocking that you still have negative influence on everything else. Movies I think now a days are horrible, what the MPAA considers safe for 13 year olds I do not. Also look at television, when I was a kid the only time sex was on TV was at 10pm at night on the payed for channels (HBO etc.) now you can flip through the channels anytime of the day and see all kinds of garbage on. But I see you did mention Music, which once again if you look at it’s to the point everything that comes out is negative in some form.
And most people will disagree, I kind of understand why. I’d probably be a little defensive if I was told I am the way I am because of my influence, it’s almost like being called a puppet. But like the old saying goes “If you want to know what kind of person you are, just look at the people you are around”
It’s kind of sad really, it’s almost like you have to live in a cave if you want to keep away from negativity. Just my 2 cents

I think your post is very apt.It is true that throughout our day we use different media and are highly influenced by it.Well that’s the job of media persons! I’m a first year mass media student myself,so I can identify with what your saying.Well right now im working on a project on ‘Media-Psychology’ and will be using your post as one the case studies.
#19 Comment By Chelsea On 10th March 2009 @ 13:43
I completely agree with the points made in this article! However, I also believe that music and television even without advertisments is still very influential media. Don’t get me wrong, I do not believe that people should completely cut off television, movies, music, etc. from their lives. I just think that advertisments are not the only form of media.

So I can change.
#21 Comment By Dr K On 19th May 2009 @ 15:00
Funny how your original topic was Negative Influence of Media on Society but you trail off into the issue of obesity… This is a simple fallacy called “Red Herring”, it is where someones starts off with one topic and partway through, the arguer goes off on a tangent, raising up another issue that distracts the audience from what is really at stake. This is a sign of a very weak argument.
This goes torwards the original topic-
People know what kinds of things are on the media: sex, drugs, violence, advertisements, etc. It is the person choice at whether or not they want to see these things. And there is also this amazing thing called Parental Control. For those of you who don’t know what this is then here’s a summary. EVERY television show/movie on TV has ratings, ususally these say V-violence, L-language, SC-sexual content, etc. With Parental Control you can set it to where any TV show with one of these rating is blocked by a password (that you make up). Now, the Parental Control doesn’t have a setting to block advertisements, but I myself am under the age of 18 and can honestly say advertisements have no affect on me. Sure, some of them might make me crave a cheeseburger now and then, but it is MY CHOICE on whether or not I get that cheeseburger. The advertisement in no way whatsoever makes me get that cheeseburger, I make myself get that cheeseburger.
The first person to comment (Erik Kepler) has a good point. Sure the media can be very influencial, but you can easily resist the media. So in my own opinion, I say NO, media does not have a negative influence on society.
#22 Comment By Greg Hankerson On 2nd June 2009 @ 09:42
I myself am under the age of 1000, interesting age huh? And it seems you contradict yourself Dr K. Ads have no effect on you, except to make you crave something. That sounds like an effect. And we are what we eat. Watch enough cheeseburgers on TV and you are more likely to eat one. Eat enough cheeseburgers and you become one. But yes, we all have a choice. So make a good one for you.
But my weak arguement isn’t being graded for school, although several people have used it in their college papers and I have 20k hits on this page now. It was just a thought that I expounded on. Thanks for the comment!

#24 Comment By matt On 4th November 2009 @ 12:59
Personally I feel the fact that people respond to a person (revealing their personal views) in a negative manner on a subject is itself an example of negative effects in mass media. It goes back to the age old saying “if dont like what you see or watch, turn it off or change the channel”. I agree with most of what Mr. Hankerson writes. I haven’t had television in my house for 3 years and I dont regret a minute of it. However, I take it further by accepting the negativity of mass media and forming my own perceptions. I may read billboards because honestly some of them are pretty darn cute. It doesnt mean I go into defense mode and turn into a zombie obsessed with the idea to purchase what the billboard is saying. Furthermore, I couldnt care less what the latest entertainment headline is, however I do not think negatively of those who follow the gossip. That is their choice and right.As long as they are not calling me at 3:00 am and telling me what was on celebrity rehab, fitness club or the celebrites latest bathroom visit, I say live and let live. If anything kudos to Mr. Hankerson for having a well written point of view using the negativity of the mass media internet to begin with. I believe its purpose was to invoke an awareness to a different way of thinking. The best way to think outside the box is to turn off the box. My turn to step down from the soapbox.
#25 Comment By Morgan On 11th November 2009 @ 07:57
I agree with everything you said. Ever since I was 13 years old, I have been told to look a certain way, to eat certain food, and to dress a certain way. I’m not overweight, but I’m not super skinny. The media has affects on girls everyday and it only gets worse. There are websites that lead girls into becoming anorexic or bulimic.
It’s very hard to drive by a fast-food restaurant when you’re hungry and it’s cheap and not get anything. It’s hard when you are trying to stay on a diet and a cheeseburger commercial comes on. It’s hard to be comfortable in your own skin when everyone tells you that you have to be a size two. Ever since high school, I’ve been studying these effects and your absolutely right. I believe that we have a certain amount of control, but when you are told over and over and over what you should eat, then you are going to start believing so. I’ve written papers and made speeches about these affects and others that are similar, and I appreciate that your website is here for people to read and to (possibly) come to a conclusion that they may need to change their outlook on where their life is going.

One thing is that if you find yourself searching for a education loan you may find that you’ll want a cosigner. There are many situations where this is true because you might discover that you do not possess a past credit score so the loan company will require that you have someone cosign the financing for you. Great post.
