Initial Post Instructions 1. Describe your overall results. What kinds of media did you consume, and what functions were present? Be as specific as possible - include counts or categories from your notes. (Optional, but encouraged: attach your record/notes to this post). 2. Using your sociological imagination, identify at least three demographic or cultural factors that are likely to influence patterns of media consumption (what people consume, how much, etc.). How do you think these factors influence your own consumption habits? 3. In your tally of the functions of media messages, which function was most common (showed up most frequently)? Explain how the media messages you observed performed this function, using at least two specific examples. (For instance, how did a news story confer status? How did an Instagram ad promote consumption?)
