Images

images compared to words can make a world of difference when trying to convey a message. A picture it worth a thousand words...or so they say! So then does this mean a picture is a better way to convey the message then by written or spoken word? The picture of president bush wearing the flight suit on bored the US Carrier was an excellent example. Like we went over in class, it was a way to show america that he was a 'hands on' president. Doing so with spoken word would be nearly impossible. Different types of media will have a huge impact on how a message is understood by its audience.
