Mass media:

It’s largely about persuasion. They try to use information to control those who are too gullible to research and double check said information.

It’s comprised of different types of media. This is a given.

(It isn’t always reliable or unreliable. Certain stories can be reliable whilst many influenced by bias will tell lies.)

It is (HEAVILY) influenced by the beliefs, interests and motives of those who create it.

Hope this helps!
