Mass communication is "different from other types of communication in a number of significant ways. First, mass communication is capable of reaching tens of thousands--even millions--of people, most of whom the sender does not know personally, and it capable of reaching these people simultaneously. . . .We could define mass communication as the process of transmitting messages that may be processed by gatekeepers prior to being transmitted to large audiences via a channel of broad diffusion such as a print, audio, or visual medium." (Gamble & Gamble, Communication Works, p. 478)
