Answer 1

Answer:

Social media message content can be altered nearly instantaneously while traditional media messages cannot.

Explanation:

Social media consists of a platform where people can create and share information with less restrictions. Because of its easy access and usage, it may be used in misleading and manipulative ways. However, it is a flexible interface where information and contents can be altered or deleted instantly.

Whereas, traditional media is not flexible and contents and information shared through traditional media mediums cannot be altered or changed instantly. The information and messages passed through traditional media are usually recorded on televisions or printed on papers. It becomes very difficult to alter the information once it gets publicized or telecast.
