communication mini paper

In class the previous week (and in your text) you were presented with a wide variety of theories and concepts that explain how media may (or may not) have an impact on us. Do you think that media have an effect on our behaviors (violence, drug use, sexual behavior, attitudes towards others, stereotyping, alcohol consumption, etc.)? Which of the theories/concepts that were discussed makes the most sense to you? Which one makes the least sense? Please make sure you explain why.
