Responses about preferred media or channels of communication should not be limited to the major mass media , but should also take narrower and more selective communication techniques - - everything from interpersonal conversations to public speeches to telephone calls to direct mail to the Internet - - into account . Some of the questions are objective and factual , such as listing the major mass media , but others require more thoughtful and analytic answers that explain how and why the media operate as they do . In the absence of the necessary public policies to ensure open network access and to foster noncommercial content , the broadband platform will simply become another extension of the existing mass media , designed primarily to sell rather than to serve . These new legal acts created the basis for a pluralistic political system , provided for an independent mass media , established a framework for foreign investments , proclaimed private ownership . And indeed , while the administration and the mainstream mass media , sadly including the New York Times , has been avoiding such questions , too eager to rally around the flag , many voices can now be heard on the internet , on campuses and in community gatherings such as this one . NCCP was all about resistance to the cultural homogenization promoted by the national mass media , which disdained traditional music as a quaint vestige of the old rural Italy disappearing with the postwar " economic miracle " and the spread of consumerism . but I remember that immediately after the parliamentary elections last December , the socialist party within 24 hours changed the directors of the national mass media , of the national TV , the national radio , the national telegraph agency , without any motivation , without any explanation , just by the decision of the majority of the socialist party .
