Would you change your media?

I recently had an assignment for a class that required us to think about the media in our lives both previously and present. One of the questions was how would you change the media habits you had as a child? As I thought about this question I began to think about how the media from my past has affected me now. I would say the main source of media in my life as a child was television. I was way to active to enjoy wanting to read or listen to music (besides in the car). However, now that I reflect back on it I wish to some degree that I would have been more involved in other media sources such as reading because I feel like sometimes I missed information I should have gathered. I don't know... it's hard to imagine what it would be like if I had not watched so much TV or if I was more interested in something else. Would I know the same things? Would I have the same views I do now? What opinions or ideas did I get from watching so much TV? Would media still mean the same thing to me today? Or would I be impacted by a different source of media more instead of the computer's different media sources? I previously wrote posts that explained how media affected me now and what types had the biggest impact on me. I think it would be interesting to change the types of media I make dominate in my life for a little while and see if I still am as impacted by the ones I mentioned before. Or if my views on things would change. Just something to think about.
