Nowadays, exposure to international media, such as films, TV, and magazines can be shown very commonly which impacts our modern societal culture. Although these things have many advantages, some disadvantages cannot be ignored. In my opinion, people should maintain control over themselves when they are engaging with the international media to get the best benefit out of it.
On the one hand, people enjoy the entertainment shows offered by foreign media and they also learn numerous things. Such as foreign culture, emotion, global affairs, food habits, and lifestyle. These things have a great impact on our people’s lifestyles in various ways. Also, children can not only get entertained but also learn many things through different kinds of TV shows that are mainly focused on them.
On the other hand, there are many drawbacks of these international media. For example, children and teenagers get obsessed with adult TV shows that are harmful to their mental growth at a certain age. They may give more priority to foreign culture rather than their own culture. It can badly impact their moral empathy to their own culture. They bring a mixture to their lifestyle while they try to follow foreign cultures.
In my view, humans should follow the right international media to achieve the best outcome from it. If we keep track of the children and teenagers while they are engaging with international media, we can stop the spreading of the bad impacts of it.
In conclusion, the international media brings many pros and cons with it. The benefits depend on the way how we use it.
