Yes, but not in the context of a newspaper as media.

Cable is a media as air is media.

But air and cable are not media as CNN is media. See the difference,
Smith? Your trying to prove a logical fallacy, bud.

-John O

I have proven and you have admitted that cable is media. I never
claimed that the definition I presented has anything to do with 'CNN
media". You seem to want things your own way also. Thank you for
helping make my point while it seems that you are the one with the
fallacy. Thus the Internet IS media.


If A=B and B=C does A=C?


Babbling will get you no where. You will always be a fool. The Internet is
a Media as I have proven time and time again. You fail to directly address
any point I made. Why is that? Are you a coward?

A. A newspaper is media. It is a tool to deliver a message.


The newspaper is a transport for media.

B. A DVD is media. It is a tool to deliver a message.


A DVD is not MEDIA, you can't see the message without additional
hardware, unless you really want to count the printing on the DVD
itself, and then the DVD is just a media transport.

C. Radio is media. It is a tool to deliver a message.


A RADIO receiver IS NOT media, but the message you hear is media, same
as in a Television box, the box is not media, the message is.

D. A speaker is media. It is a tool to deliver a message.


Nope, a speaker (not a person) is a device, no media by itself, no media
alone, it is an instrument to be used present media.

E. A Book is media. It is a tool to deliver a message.


I a book with no content still media? Nope, it would be a tool or
transport.

F. The Internet is a tool use to deliver a message therefor it is media.


The internet is not media, it is just like AIR or Radio Waves, no media,
just a method to reach the media.

Again, if we remove all of the content from the internet, does the
internet still exist? Yes, because the internet IS A NETWORK even
without content.

You have your own definition that is inaccurate and incomplete.

http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/m/media.html

(1) Objects on which data can be stored. These include hard disks, floppy
disks, CD-ROMs, and tapes.

(2) In computer networks, media refers to the cables linking workstations
together. There are many different types of transmission media, the most
popular being twisted-pair wire (normal electrical wire), coaxial cable (the
type of cable used for cable television), and fiber optic cable (cables made
out of glass).

(3) The form and technology used to communicate information. Multimedia
presentations, for example, combine sound, pictures, and videos, all of
which are different types of media.



You must enjoy making an ass out of yourself you are very good at it.

This definition is wrong - Wire is not media. A network is NOT media.

(3) The form and technology used to communicate information. Multimedia
presentations, for example, combine sound, pictures, and videos, all of
which are different types of media.


Which also indicates that the Servers contain the media, nit the
internet.

You must enjoy making an ass out of yourself you are very good at it.


You are better at it than I am, at least from what you post.
