The information is money. As mass communication is developing, the speed for getting newest
information and quantity of the information decide the structure of power in a society. I think that
obtaining information from many different sources is very important to become well-informed while
some people argue that too much information disturbs them to decide important matter.
First, information from different sources prevents us to become prejudicial. In other words, when we
hear only one opinion from one part, we are apt to be bigoted. We, human beings, are very easy to
be influenced by others. We can see many examples about this human tendency from history and
our actual life. For instance, we see a kid who believes that there is the Santa Clause when he is
young based on his parents’ words. As he is growing older, he realizes that the Santa Clause is a
fictional character after his friends tell him. In a process for comparing two opposite ideas, a kid
chooses a better opinion; The Santa Clause exists only in a story. In this sense, we need information
from various sources not to become a prejudice view.
Furthermore, more information is better than a lack of information. Every newspaper or journal
represents a different interest. An economic newspaper considers more news relevant to money,
and a scientific journal contains more information about science. Well-informed life requires
becoming knowledgeable to many subjects. Prosperous knowledge usually guarantees a prosperou
s life in mentally. Also, possession of abundant information helps us sometimes. We have many
opportunities to meet people from various backgrounds. For example, when we meet a biologist,
we'd better to posses some basic information for fluent conversation with him.
To sum up, for preventing to have a prejudice and obtaining extend knowledge, information from
various sources is ideal. Knowledge is like friends. As many friends bring me more friends,
knowledge introduces more knowledge and it leads us to prosperous life.
