  • The process follows the model: Who → Says What → In Which Channel → To Whom → With What Effect.
  • The three main functions are: Inform, Educate, and Entertain.
  • Media shapes public awareness and behavior.
  • Real-life impact seen in Green Revolution and polio campaigns.
  • Paper and printing were the first steps in mass communication.
  • Telegraph, telephone, radio, and television expanded reach and speed.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
