nother reason why many people turn to new media instead of traditional is the fact that it is a two-way method of communication (McQual 145). Any person can post their thoughts for the world to view. According to the book McQuail's Reader In Mass Communication Theory with traditional media feedback was unavailable (147). The most people could do was write a letter to the editor or wait for someone to answer their call on a TV show. Now after any type of article or video there is an area to post ones like and dislikes. Applications like the e-mail also have aloud for people to send each other photos, information and many more (148).
In the end, what makes the Internet so popular today is the fact that it is very entertaining. As mentioned the Internet has a vast amount of services people can chose from. More over a person can access information, check mail and what TV shows (Weizhen). That is what makes the Internet so appealing for many people. Also anyone can check anything on the Internet at any time they feel like it (Weizhen). If the Internet was not developed in an interesting way people would have not have become the heavy users they are today.
