Man or Media ?

We are a lot dependent on internet and media nowadays, in fact, Our worlds are usually impacted by technology, internet and media. In fact our perspectives and opinions and also our fundamental thinking framework, is vastly impacted by this media and technology that, our own judgement and critical thinking attitude is faded away somewhere. Our thinking and judgement is widely influenced by media around us, and also we are not inclined to find out the truth and look beneath than what is being shown to us.

What is really happening here? Are we becoming dumber or smarter?

Although availability of information is easier now but there is also useless information that doesnt completely make sense. We are facing a type of information overload here, where smarter feels that he is getting smarter but he gets dumber as too much of information will not let develop his critical or judgemental minset. He relies too much on information and that will be his life.

Curiosity is fueled by thinking, questioning but not just mere acceptance of facts and what is being shown or presented.

Dependency of people on media is so much that media has filtered the truth. Watch around you, observe media, they are either promoting stuff or they are opposing stuff, while showing the information. It is a hype that information, which gives a power to an individual, ends up confusing or dominating the perspectives of people.

So, ARE YOU BECOMING DUMB OR SMARTER
ARE OUR PERSPECTIVES BASED ON THE FILTERED MEDIA?!
ARE YOU DOING YOUR OWN JUDGEMENT!!

The answer to last question is quiet impossible to give, as we are overloaded by information, a man has less time to question what has being shown, a man has less time to go in dept of information and form an opinion of himself.

Man is stopped by time, less time is what stops him to get his perspective straight.

Then what is it, or who is responsible here, the man or media?
