Independence and Dependency on forms of Media

Some forms of media that I am most dependent on would be the Internet, cell phone and my Ipod. These are my 4's and 5's because I use these the most like the inernet to see what is new is happening in the world of gaming and sports or my cell phone to stay intouch with friends. A few of my 0's would be the actual news, radio and televison. I dont watch much tv or listen to the radio for news mostly due to the reason that the internet is faster and usally more informative. Does the mass media have a hold on me? I would think not i don't relay to much on the media and could go with out it if needed.
