1. With which one of the network laws do you most agree? Why?

Sarnoff's Law is one law I agree with the most because of it's description of a broadcast network's value and how it has a direct correlation with the number of viewers. This is highly applicable to today's integration of social applications as well. It was just announced on Forbes List, that the 25-year old co-founder of snap chat is the youngest billion-air alive, as well as the youngest on the actual list. A simple application was able to grow dramatically in value due to it's rapid growing number of users. The more powerful your audience, the more impact and reach your message will have. Sarnoff's law definitely describes this relationship of networks and users, more specifically, how power is generated from that relationship


 2. In five years from now, I see technology and delivery of information changing, however, I do not think the content or channels of communication and information will change very much in that time. I know we have enough technology that the general public can figure out almost anything they want. We can figure out our own heart rates, or what is going on over on the other side of the world. I think the difference will be efficiency of news delivery. We have many different sources to acquire information from, but the strength and efficiency of these outlets are forever being enhanced. I see more digital news being put out to the public, such as monitors that can update regularly throughout public venus.
