Ok so as you can see from the above I am exposed to media on an average of 56 hours a week.This works out about 33% of my time per week is spent exposed to media. That is the same amount of time I sleep per week. This fact really surprised me because no one realises how much they are exposed to media on a daily bases. When our lecturer set us the challenge to count how many hours we were exposed to media I taught to myself sure its probably going to be around 20 or 30. But was I wrong or what.
This task opened my eyes to how much media is out there and how much our lives are controlled by it. For example I listen to radio every morning at my breakfast, then I drive to and from college each day with the radio on and when I work I have the radio on at the weekend. So this is how I counted up my media hours for radio.
What other types of media are you exposed too? Please leave a comment and let me know.
