Mediation

Mediation - The process of electing and shaping, creating meaning from an original event. An event which is mediated within the systems of values of an institution e.g. (News of the World, CH4 News). Their view is represented to the public.

“media do not just offer us a transparent ‘window on the world’ but a mediated version of the world. They don’t just present reality, they re-present it – David Buckingham…”
