Demography and the Mass Media.

Abstract

The purpose of the paper is to delineate the relationship between the mass communications media and the science of demography. It begins with a discussion of demography, its history, methodology and limitations, followed by a review of communications theory as it applies to the mass media. The interrelations among the mass media, the government, and target audiences are demonstrated. (Modified author abstract)
