The media, as we have proposed, appear as important and sometimes central forces in both the economic and socio-cultural theories of globalization. As we have noted, Friedman, Bhagwati, Robertson, Giddens, Appadurai, and Tomlinson all attribute great importance to the media, but most of these authors have not specialized in the communication field and sometimes manifest a naive view of media and their influence.
