/^t/Let me commence the inquiry into the mass media as well as the inquiry into the way they shape reality with the reminder of Alfred Schutz's philosophy. Schutz - a twentieth century Austrian philosopher and sociologist put a premium on the existence of parallelism of reality. He maintained it was possible for two realities to coexist. For the sake of simplicity, one might label these realities as lower and upper respectively, the realities where human beings dwell during their earthly existence. There are different worlds made of political systems or philosophical views, therefore, why should not be there different but still parallel worlds created by the mass media.
