1. PEOPLE AS MEDIA
Example:opinionleaders,citizen
journalists,influencers,vloggers.
??????Why it Matters in People as
Media?
1. It shows how ordinary people (opinion
leaders) can act as media themselves —they
shape how information is understood and
spread.
2. Opinion leaders are powerful because
people trust them more than mass media.
??????Why”Two-way?”
1. Because the audience doesn’t just receive
information directly from media.
2. Instead, information is filtered through
opinion leaders, who add meaning, opinions, or
context.
3. The influence is indirect —it flows media →
opinion leaders → people.
