My Media Autobiography

In my life media is a very useful tool in many aspects and is something in which i am very tied to. I use media such as tv and radio to help me relax and is something that i enjoy viewing in my downtime. I greatly enjoy watching shows such as East Dound and Down, King of Queens, Sports Nation, Around the Horn, Surviving the Cut, and The Office. I also love to watch sports more than anything especially baseball and the Sf Giants. This is one of the reasons i took this class, i am a liberal arts major at De Anza but when i transfer i will be switching my major to Communications which i hope will be a huge help in letting me be a sports broadcaster. I often listen to KNBR 680 and idolize the work that F.P. Santangelo, John Miller, Duane Kuiper, and Mike krukow do on the air and wish that one day i can do something similar to their work. I use the other types of media as well, mainly the internet which aids me in class work everyday, along with its vast ability to bring up information on almost anything you can think of. I don't read many books other than ones that are necissary for school, however i do read magazines such as Muscle and fitness along with various magazines on college football. In my personal opinion there are many pros and cons of each medium and which one is the best is simply on personal preference.My favorite medium is television for the simply fact of getting live images and feeling like you're there, commentary like radio, and often times facts and information is found and displayed from the internet. All media is a intergral part of my life and is something i hope to see the ins and outs of and make my carrer path.

  1. I was sad to hear that F.P. is going to Washington DC to announce for the Nationals!
