HST300 Colorado State Mass Media & Its Influence in American Society Paper Option #1:

Analyze mass media and its influence in American society. Define what mass media was and how it expanded during the 1970s. Then, compare/contrast mass media with social media today. Consider their similarities and differences such as their reach, content, people served, the influence, and how one or the other is a voice for groups in society. Emphasize the mass media rather than social media.

One primary resource (textbook or required reading), and
