Read the article first then 1- compare these finding in the article to how you and people around you use mass communication today. 2-Think about your smart phone or other mobile device. Please imagine that the data plan on your mobile device didn’t work for a day so that you could send and receive phone calls and texts, but nothing else. Then, explain what you would miss the most and why. 3- One reason people read a newspaper (or use a news website or app) is for information about public affairs. However, Berelson identified several “uses” for the newspaper among the people he interviewed, such providing respite, social prestige, or (as discussed in section V of the article) a comforting routine and a sense of connection. Please consider the thing that you indicated you would miss most if you lost your data plan, and evaluate it in light of Berelson’s research. That is, does it seem to fit into one of his categories? Explain why or why not. If not, is there some other way that you use of your mobile device, or that you have seen others use their mobile devices, that does fall into one of these categories. Please explain. 4-If you didn’t do so above, please identify a need or want that is fulfilled by your mobile device that wasn’t fulfilled by the newspaper in 1945. That is, something that does NOT fall into one of Berelson’s categories. Explain what it is, and explain why it is different from Berelson’s categories. please provide me answers to all the questions
