5. Because of the visual media, some people may become dissatisfied with the reality of their own lives.
To these viewers, everyday life does not seem as exciting as the roles actors play in movies or TV dramas. They realize they aren’t having as much fun as the stars of comedy shows.
Furthermore, average people with normal lives may envy famous media personalities, who seem to get unlimited amounts of money and attention.
Also, media watchers might get depressed when they can’t take care of situations in real life as well as TV stars seem to.
On the screen, they notice actors solve serious problems in hour or half-hour programs-or in twenty-second commercials.
