Voice of America radio transmitting tower By definition, mass communication is a process in which professional communicators design and use media to disseminate messages widely, rapidly, and continuously in order to arouse intended meanings in large, diverse, and selectively attending audiences in attempts to influence them in a variety of ways.

Numerous 20th century U.S. postage stamps have commemorated the media of mass communication. In fact, those postal issues themselves are media of mass communication. For a lot of fun, and a little bit of history, look at the images of certain past issues in this virtual topical collection of stamps which depict mass communication media.
