Produktbeschreibung
The media represent an essential and integral part of the democratic process in any political community. Their statutory functions of enlightenment, education, and entertainment have placed them on a pedestal of alertness and vigilance such that they have become an indispensable part of social governance.

The mass media are, however, generally regarded as a channel of communication that is capable of reaching heterogeneous audience simultaneously with a uniform message.
