Pluralist Question

How much of a pluralist am i?

I believe I am a bit of a pluralist. This is because i feel that although the ruling classes may choose what we see, ultimately we still decide what we want to see/hear/read because it is upto them to cater to our needs in order to make their business successful. I do also think that although we ultimately choose what we see/hear/read, the versions of these are dumbed down in order for the ruling classes to keep some sort of control. I personally though challenge alot i see or hear and enjoy a range of different media texts. I also believe i am an active audience member and can reject to accept a certain media text as i feel my opinion is not influenced by things that happen in the media.
