How can media change our mind?

To the theory of McLuhan, I understand that his theory “Medium is the message” is through the media, it can affect to what we think in the daily life. How we can get the latest news is through the media and after we get in it, we will easily think the news is right without any judgment. I agree with his theory but I think when we easily get the message it will affect to what we think towards to our daily life. 

Here I am going to explain another social media platform that is usually use by Hong Kong people, that is HKGolden. I remember in the few last year it happen a “Kong Lui Five Hundred” event, it is about a ready to get marry woman post a status on Facebook about if you give five hundred cash gift, you don’t come to my wedding party. I remember the starting point is from Facebook but the HKGolden netizen immediately open a new topic or make a song or article saying about her and say she is such a selfish girl. This event made many people start to feel fear about when you type a status in Facebook. Also, when their friends get weeding they will think about how much give to their friends. Wedding is a grateful day to share the happiness with family and friends but after happen this event, make people use “wedding” as a tool to check your friend is a “real-friend” or not. (255 words)
