Television is most used. We can see and hear [[news]] from around the world. Radio also brings [[music]] and news. [[Book]]s supply older and more detailed material. The [[internet]] is also important. We can search for all the news and [[information]]. [[Website]]s like [[Wikipedia]] and [[about.com]] give information about many things. [[Library|Libraries]] are also important. In libraries we can read [[book]]s and listen to music. The term was coined in the 1920s with the advent of nationwide radio networks, mass-circulation [[newspaper]]s and [[magazine]]s, although mass media (like [[book]]s and [[manuscript]]s) were present centuries before the term became common. ==Related pages== * [[Journalism]] * [[Censorship]] * [[News agency]] * [[Media studies]] {{stub}} [[Category:Mass media| ]]
