Abstract

The inability to consider, let alone plan for, cross-cultural ramifications has been a central communication failure that has proven tremendously problematic. The mass media, via traditional channels and new communication technologies, have been keen to report on these matters which, in turn, have modified public understanding of the matters being reported. Mass media messages have been vital in creating, and impacting, this phenomenon. This phenomenon has been equally true among traditional media channels and the new communication technologies.
