Audience and institution

I believe that all media texts have a specific target audience. Reality shows, the news and soaps have a mass audience of all different types of people. Events like the World Cup, the Olympics and most recently The Royal Wedding also attract mass audiences in their millions from 'all walks of life'. However pregames such as skins have a target audience for students specifically. So their audience ranges from 16-20 year olds.
I would say roughly 70% of my media interaction takes place when i am on my own and 30% when i am with others. Media consumption can take place through watching films and T.v, whether it's at the cinema or on DVD. Social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter help people to interact with current affairs with friends and celebrities. Music is a big chunk in my media consumption  i have a Spotify account and Ipod to listen to music on, i also use websites such as YouTube to discover not only music but  interesting videos/clips. I also look through blogs for ideas and entertainment.

 How do i share my media experiences?
