On what does the media’s influence on society depend?

My comments relate largely to news media:

(1) Availability, Accessibility - the more accessible, the larger penetration if information.

(2) Credibility (of media). The more credible the source, the more willing the public will be open to the information communicated.

(3) Diversity (of media outlets) - The more diverse the less polarization of public opinion. Diversity interplays with (2) credibility. I am unsure, but diversity may actually be inversely related to influence. The less diversity (for instance, a Communist==dictatorship country with a single media outlet), the stronger the control power (but less credibility at the same time).

In general, it should be desirable to maximize the three factors above for a well informed, civil society. In particular, news media's role should primarily be to inform, and not to influence.

How should you use a heart rate monitor
12345 [234]
 Measure your heart rate before, during and after work outs and write it down. Monitors can be worn as a strap across the chest, on the wrist and even on the head, and by measuring your heart rate can help you exercise at the right intensity. Most don't have a display, so you'll need to connect your monitor with a sports watch or smartphone app to see your heart rate.
