Does the media control us?

We all know how much media has advanced in the past few decades, to an extent where everyone of us will have contact to at least several mediums a day.

We're also aware how powerful the media is. I'm pretty positive every person who has access to the media has been effected by it, whether it be the way they dress, they act, they talk, their values, morals, beliefs, etc.

The question is, is the media really controlling us? Are we living in a society where we our decisions are effected by the media, and no longer have real control over our thinking?

This may sound a stupid question, but given some thought, I think you'd come to realise we have decayed as a society. And most of what we do is not for ourselves, but what the media wants us to.

Debate.
