What is the average time spent on social media platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter on a daily basis?ĭoes prolonged use of social media have mental effects? What do statistics reveal about social media usage? Negative impacts of social media include the spread of fake news, violation of privacy, addiction to endless scrolling, and trolling of brands, individuals, companies, and countries. In military operations, social media helps soldiers gain insights about the nation and the international environment. In addition, social media can be used as a platform for communication between staff and customers. It influences the success of global brands because by helping managers understand customers’ attitudes towards their company’s products and services. Social media has both negative and positive impacts. Consequently, the audience spends a significant amount of time on a daily basis feeding on this content. Also, ads used share emotions such as inspiration, excitement, amusement, and warmth to captivate the audience. Compared to traditional media, social media has a higher global audience and reach. Social media is inherently different from traditional media from various perspectives.
