Answer:

For me, I think Mass Media is the most influential agent of socializations. Because it has
so many different branches, for example: internet, most of the people in this generation has a social
media accounts. Surfing in different social media and websites, you will see some pages that posting
about news and people get to share their own thoughts and opinions about the particular subject. In
this process, people get to know each other’s opinion because it influences our political views, tastes in
cultures, our different views and many other beliefs and practices. Television, movies, magazines and
popular music are also part of mass media because some of this are inspired from real life situations,
commercials in televisions can greatly change our way of thinking by the way of persuading people to
choose other products to purchase.
