SOCIOLOGY 2
Media is one of the most compelling bodies that helps in ensuring that different actions
taking place in various parts of the world have been communicated to people in other parts of
the world. Through the use of medial, information is easily transmitted from one location to
the other. Media further helps in creating awareness in case there has been a rise of global
challenges. Over time, medial has been applied in publicizing criminal activities that take part
in the world. This helps any person who might come across that information be cautious over

behaviour that has ever been published online and made available to the world. Moreover, we
will discuss how the behaviour connects to a specific theory of deviance and society views the
behaviour.
Some deviant behaviour may be accepted by a given society but rejected by the other.
Some examples of these behaviours include excessive drinking, illegal hunting, drugs, and

behaviour has been addressed in the article "Drug dependence for 'feel-good factor' rising
among youth: experts." Written by Anuradha Mascarenhas on October 6, 2021. The rise of
drug and substance use among young people has been the leading cause of the selection of the

aspects that lead to one developing a specific behaviour Michael K. (Dzordzormenyoh et al.,
2021). Moreover, the theory accounts for additional responsibilities that both family and school
play in developing characters among peers. If one fails in performing what is expected of them,
