The influence of the media in societal values

What do you think about the influence of the media in our lives?

We have already asked this question to ourselves we have noticed advantages and disadvantages of the media's impact in our society. Our intention is to raise awareness and to prevent youth people  from making; the same mistakes as we have made.

Our society has changed. If you remember, just some years ago, there were less stereotypes than now, and the influence of national and international media was less noticeable.

For example the way of thinking of our youth has become superficial and materialistic because of violence, bad habits and fashion. The worst is the last one since  physical apperance has become too importat today, especially in youth. We have chosen fashion because of that; for that reason. We have chosen fashion because of that. For that reason, we are going to give an example:

The increase of diseases like bulimia and anorexia, has lead to the death of models and their "fans". The world of fashion has created stereotypes of the desirable skinny figure, and people live up to it with diets, exercice, cosmetic surgery and pills, while losing sight of what really matters our character.
