Industries have revolutionized the socio-economic fabric of communities since time immemorial. The man, from the dawn of history, has seen the need to transform their environment to survive. The eighteenth and nineteenth centuries represented a dramatic change in the ability to industrialize the human being, the industrial revolution had begun and with it, a new economic structure based on capitalism.

On a basis it is no wonder we ended industrializing all aspects of our lives, including that of communication. advances have allowed for greater dissemination of information. Still, make no mistake. The advance in technology has enabled the distribution and consumption of global information, but does not imply that we are now better informed.

A greater flow of information does not guarantee that we know better our environment near and far. The reason, undoubtedly, is the concentration of producers of information, globalization of information.
