Question

How does the media impact our beliefs and values in a positive way

Answer 1

The media impacts our values and beliefs about marriage both in a positive and negative way. It is a well-known fact that the media plays a powerful role in impacting our values and beliefs about marriage. It can both confuse and educate us about how we should be treated, and treat, our partners in a marriage. If we look at the rate that celebrity marriages fail, it can encourage us to end a marriage for petty issues that often can be worked through if both partners are committed to making the marriage work. On the other hand, there are often valid reasons for ending a marriage. The best example where the media can alert people to a valid reason for ending a marriage is when the person is in an abusive marriage and does not know it, or does not know how to get out of the relationship.
