Entertainment

Entertainment is an action, event or activity that aims to entertain, amuse and interest the public. This audience can have a passive role as in the case of a play, tv show or movie.The entertainment can attract the audience and make them think. It influences their actions and thoughts. When we talk of entertainment, fun, enjoyment and laughter come to our mind.Entertainment  is seen as the second best to news and current affairs in media sociology. Media consumption is about a correspondence between textual meaning and cognitive understanding. Media audiences are consumers; people who buy and use information and entertainment. Media institutions are established, often-profit organisations that deal in the creation and distribution of advertising, entertainment and information services.Remediation is a refashioning process. It is taking a form of media and reproducing it in another form of media, for example, an article to a video.
