B: Television or TV is an audio and video version of displaying media. You don’t have control on what you want to see, it gives you an idea of how the topic looks like and sounds like.

C: The newspaper is browsable media and you can skip through stuff you don’t want to read to where you want to read. It doesn’t give you audio and video, but it might give video in the form of pictures and images, they are also a waste of paper for one thing as millions upon millions are printed causing the loss of thousands of trees.

D: The internet is a quick information displayer, it is browsable. Unlike the newspaper, the internet has the ability to give you audio and video and also interactive control over media.

E: Asking someone is the easiest thing to do, you don’t need a newspaper, TV, computer or radio to get information. There is a chance you may not get the info you want easily but you will get it quickly and instantly, you will also get the audio if the person you are asking has a good idea in how to imitate it.

4. Photographs and video give you a better understanding of the topic and give you visual and sound information, it is better than just reading because it gives you a much better feeling of what happened. It is sometimes instant and will help you understand better.

Benjamin Franklin

Benjamin Franklin was an American statesman and inventor; he had 16 brothers and sisters. His father’s name was Josiah Franklin. He had a wife named Deborah Read, he had 2 kids, the first one was Francis Folger Franklin, born October 1732, died of smallpox in 1736, the other one, Sarah Franklin, familiarly called Sally, was born in 1743. She eventually married Richard Bache, had seven children, and cared for her father in his old age. Benjamin Franklin went to school for only 2 years because his family didn’t have enough money. When he was old enough he partnered with his much older brother and ran a printing business. His brother was disappointed that Ben was more popular than him, and because of that he made Benjamin work harder, Benjamin left his apprenticeship without permission and became someone running from the law. At the age of 17 Benjamin ran away to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He got a job in a printing shop and earned money, he soon was not satisfied with it and soon went to Governor Sir William Keith hoping to get some equipment to create his own printing shop, he went to London, but it was not possible so he went and worked in another printing shop, after this he went back to Philadelphia in 1726 with the help of Thomas Denham, a merchant who employed him as a clerk, shopkeeper and bookkeeper in his business. After a while in 1750 he published an experiment that will show the use of electricity and where to find it, he used a kite to prove it, he would fly the kite in a storm, with lots of lightning and some of the lightning would strike the kite and would cause a flow of electricity down the metal string and to a key, he had himself insulated, if he didn’t then the experiment would be dangerous as he might be electrocuted. On May 10, 1752 Thomas-François Dalibard of France conducted Franklin's experiment using a 40-foot (12 m)-tall iron rod instead of a kite; he successfully attracted sparks from a cloud.
