Why aren't media part of reality?

Hi, I wanted to ask why media (cell phones, laptops etc.) is not part of reality or anything? I mean, yes The world created things like trees and stuff, that's clear that it's a reality. But we humans have made toys and say that it is also part of reality. Then why not media? I'm just stupid: Ü

Cell phones and laptops are not media. I think you misunderstand something here. Media is usually understood to mean something else. And of course they are part of reality. If it were not, they would have no meaning for all of us.

How do you get the strange idea that "media" like cell phones are not a reality? They are real, existing devices. However, the term "media" is used incorrectly here.

Media is usually understood to mean print media (newspapers, magazines, books), as well as television and radio stations.

Yeah but people say something I don't know how

"Let go of this stuff, that's not reality, reality is here!"

I mean that

Then these people refer to the fact that your use of the cell phone is taking over and that you should be more concerned with the people around you and generally with what you perceive directly and personally in your environment.

OK thanks.

Who says media are not part of reality?

I don't mean that so people say it like "get away from this stuff it's not reality, the reality is here!"
