DTV and non free to air media are there but we are not forced to use it.

Computer hacking is cool but cracking isn't.

Internet is not free it costs fair bit to access it due to running costs.

the thing is the media doesnt ussually these days try to tell poelpe what to think, they are smarter than that.

the media merely chooses what everyone thinks about, thus if they continuelly portray an image everntually it becomes true simply because the other side has never been mentioned.

when i was studying journalism at uni that was one of the first things they taught us.

"the media doesn't tell people what to think, but rather what to think about "
