Question

A college student is studying to become a TV journalist and spends a good deal of her day watching television news broadcasts. She also goes everywhere on campus with her digital recorder to capture any newsworthy events she sees, such as a protest on campus. When she films these events, she immediately uploads them to public campus websites so others can see what is going on campus. Which status best describes the student and her relationship to the media

Answer 1

She is both a consumer and a producer of media.

Step-by-step explanation:

She is a consumer because she spends a good deal of her day watching television news broadcasts, and this is a purely passive activity for her since she does not work in any of the television networks.

But she is also a producer because she goes around campus looking for newsworthy events, and reports them on campus websites. In other words, she is a campus reporter, and as a reporter, she is actively producing media content.
