Consideration of "old" and "new" media

Nowadays, we had entered into a new media world.
In my opinion, for most theories in the world, including the theory of the media had never been fully innovation and it always be a product in specific period. Most of today's old theory just update. Although some of these theories appear on the old theory of a fundamental rewritten or complex synthesis. It is important to understand the foundation of new media theories. So there is no real "old" and "new" media.
For old media needed large capital, cultural and technical resources. ( local cinema, few television station) But the user of new media is no longer just a consumer. It is easy to become a new media author with tying errors, spelling mistakes and factual inaccuracies.
And now, people can watch a film from cable channels, satellite, video and DVD. People can received different lastest news from television or radio broadcast whenever they are. Use personal PC access remote database. Various of press feast for the people's eyes, which can fix different reader's taste.
