Mass media and education

Mass media and education can interact in the construction of intercultural images by been consistent, factually informed, and culturally valid.  These set of messages can conribute to a  beter intercultural knowledge and insights both in film and in school.  Most of the historical facts are based in the eye of the beholder meaning that they will tell the story depending on their background and their culture.  If you are raised in believing certain things about different cultures or people then you will grow up believing the same things and acting the same towards those that you might  consider to be different then you or inferior to you.  When you are growing up and they tell you that certain things are bad or that will hurt you, then you tend to stay away from what ever you are been warn against.  In the same way that you were raised, you will also teach  others that come after you.  Information that is posted can not be trusted a hundred percent because you can not prove if is true or is just to the benefit of whoever wrote it.
