The media has a significant impact on how consumers perceive events. The media can be seen as a form of entertainment, and it is often the case that the media will sensationalize events to get more viewers and readers. This is true with criminal cases where the media’s portrayal of an individual can make or break their chances in court. This comes from the old adage “any publicity is good publicity.” However, this may not be true when it comes to criminal cases. The media can have a negative impact on both the judge and jury when they portray a defendant in a biased manner.

This type of consumer is becoming more common as people are getting more involved in politics and other issues that affect them personally.
