ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Media-system dependency

Media-system dependency means that we rely on media systems like the internet, TV, or radio to give us news and information. It means that things like news and entertainment come from these media systems, and that it's hard for us to get information without them. For example, if our internet connection went out, we wouldn't be able to get news from our favorite websites, or watch our favorite TV shows. We would have to find another way to get news and entertainment.
