Diversion Theory

Hey guys, today i would like to talk about Mass Communication Theory in the early era. Before that let's have a quick look on this short video.



Have you guys watched it? Hahahahaha this movie give me a immediate reaction. I laugh out loud and i can't stop laughing for about five minutes!! Hmm this is what diversion about. Diversion is when we entertain ourselves to avoid boredom or maybe you want to release your emotion. Maybe you feel stress after class or love problem, you can diverse yourself to make you feel better. For me, if i'm in stress situation, i will sing a song to release my tension.

Diversion has many meanings. In stimulation view, it is to avoid boredom or seeking emotional or intellectual stimulation. In relaxation view, diversion means when people faced sensory overload, they just need to seek relief to release all their stress. Lastly, is emotions release. when we watch horror movie we will scream out loud or maybe sad movie we will cry so that we will release our emotions feeling.

Diversion make an impact to the viewers. In other hand, we can said that media can change a phenomena from sad to happy or happy to sad. Media is controlling us nowadays. As evidence, i depend to music to change my emotions. Media is so powerful, they produce something that can make us addicted to. They also can control our behavior sometimes. In addition, a lot of people addicted to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Youtube, Flickr and many others social media. We can see those people who addicted to all these social media, they able sit in front of their laptop or computer more than 5 hours. They did not get bored because diverse give them a different thing everyday and media keep going on and on. This is so dangerous especially for kids. However, we cannot avoid media because media make our life better.

This is how diverse works, its always moves from one to another and won't stop and this is how we get connected to everyone on everything.
