Definition
- The media is a significant industrial sector in its own right and it is also part of the infrastructure of the global economy. Its dual function as a site of important business transactions and as a market creator has increased materially since World War II in conjunction with the emergence of computer technology, particularly the internet, and the return of globalization.
