For most of us, social media is an important part of people’s daily lives. The maximum use of social media is to make it easier to contact others, or to share interesting things in life or photos, but there are also people who use the diversity and breadth of social media to make money. But as celebrities, they can market their movies, music or concerts or endorse products while having a huge number of fans in social media. It’s like appearing in the public eye PLN, which can make the information they post more impactful. Having a large number of fans means that they have to carry more social responsibility, their every word and action is affecting the society, and they need to be responsible for what they say. They need to be responsible for what they say, because any wrong statement can incite people’s emotions and lead to a big disaster. Also their social media can give a voice to social injustice and make the government pay attention to it.
Secondly, the construction of a reliable PLN in a connected society requires verifiable resources, which I believe need to be better regulated, for example, in terms of the reliability of information, spreading a false message a dozen to a hundred, which will send society into a panic, thus bringing uncontrollable consequences. For example, a few years ago there was a nuclear leak in Japan, but in China there was a rumor that there was a shortage of salt, and people began to spend a lot of money on salt, which led to an increase in prices, but then experts avoided the rumor that the nuclear leak would not affect the supply of salt. So we need to verify the reliability of these network resources, and people need to improve their ability to discriminate information so that they can build dependable pln.
In the end, because we live in a powerful media world where the media can influence us through a variety of messages, and this influence is very powerful, we need to learn media literacy, including the ability to access and analyze media messages and to create, reflect and act on them, to use the power of information and communication to change the world, and to raise awareness of media influence. Positive impact for the people.
