Abstract

Today we live in an information society, where media plays a big role. Journalists help people to understand what is happening in the world. They choose the information that we need to know. Media doesn’t simply tell us what to think about, it tells us how to think about issues. Journalists put the information in a certain framework when creating the message. These frames influence how we perceive information.
