Forms of mass media
Recordings
Print
Cinema
Radio
The internet
Television
The mass media I prefer is the internet because of some reasons.
 First, it is considered as the most useful mass media 
in my opinion.  It can be used for lots of purposes like searching information for your homework or other useful things
Second, You also can use it for chatting with your friends or searching music and movies and download them, sometimes I use it for chatting with my friends through Facebook or twitter in the evening ,it’s really great!
However, the internet can also be dangerous since a virus can infect your digital device and break it so you should save a good anti-virus for yours. it can also damage your eyes and create an addiction, so we must use it wisely.
