Week 5 Media Culture Class

I don't have any critics in this week. The notes that the lecturer gave is very detail. It will become easier when I do my review before the examination. Thank you.

What Is On The Internet Is True?

We can get any kind of information in the Internet. Just one click, we can know what we want to know. This is an easy way to get the information but we can't make sure the information is true or false. So, I don't often take what is on the Internet as truth.

I can always receive many forward messages from my friends. Some of them is just too ridiculous to believe they are true. I will think that such a thing won't exist in this world. Beside that, technology is very advanced nowsaday. Normal people or even children can post any kind of things on the Internet whether they are true or false as long as they know how to access the Internet. There are times that people spread all kinds of rumors, lies and innuendo. I generally won't care about them because they are none of my business. Even they do, I will only believe it if there are evidence to prove it.

Although there are many people like to play in the Internet, there are still have many information and news which are true. I just need to check the sources before I want to use that information. I will also ask other people's opinion to prevent mistake happen. The most important thing is we need to analyse it.
