The aim of this paper is to discuss the decisive roles of future generations on the media and to offer suggestions on how they should follow the media. As a method, a reading and comparison will be made based on the controversial contents in today's media.
When mass media filled the streets of Paris in the form of colorful posters for the first time in history, people were very impressed by these works consisting of images and text for the first time. On the one hand, they received the communication message, and on the other hand, they valued it and blessed it. Years later, there is no one left to look at the billboards on the streets that try to serve the same function. Is it possible to overcome this bombardment when everywhere is colorful, lively and attractive? Do people have the time, energy or desire to achieve accurate communication?
We have all kinds of communication channels, it is very easy to go back in time and do research, it is very convenient to collect and categorize tons of content in one place. It is very easy for those who want to do research. Now, anyone can be a news source, anyone can be a photojournalist, and anyone can be a researcher if they want. Anyone who wants can learn any subject in full detail.
However, algorithms, tracking for advertising purposes, manipulations and various conspiracy theories cloud everything. Social media, which seems like unlimited freedom, actually brings similar people together. There is no solution to understanding how much of the tons of information and electronic content is accurate.
The credibility of communication content has always been discussed, but it has never been this inextricable. Today's people need to go with the flow in order to feel comfortable in life. While the media of the future will present to the audience thousands of times the content of today, the arbiter will be needed for between right and wrong.
