Step Three:Task 8

What are the political and social implications of the new technologies and the methods of their consumption?  E.g. moral panics etc?

New and digital media has had a huge impact on the social aspects of society. Firstly, it has given more people a voice that will be heard due to social media sites such as Twitter where more and more peoples opinions are put out on  this platform. From a political point of view it has also been great as new and digital media has made it possible to start debates globally, again through social media. 

Looking at it from the view point of film, new and digital media has allowed film makers to promote films on many platforms to reach out to greater audience members. This is through video sharing websites like YouTube and Social Networking websites.
