Media Imperialism [PR]
by Calvin Seng on Apr.14, 2009, under Media Culture
Well, the lecture was indeed quite short, around half an hour’s time. However, in the rest of the class, Madam Helena was showing us one documentary film about Media Imperialism. I would say the film was interesting if it wasn’t that long. However, media imperialism is about controlling, maneuvering something, especially people. The concept wasn’t too hard to understand and in fact quite easy. This phenomena happens around us, if we do pay attention. One good example about media imperialism, given by Madam Helena, was about the same owner of TV3, NTV7, TV8 and TV9.
I had done some researches on Media Prima Berhad. One thing I found out was it isn’t just a simple company that owns the media, but they are involving in stocks as well.
