media
media noun the media went wild with the story of the singer's arrest: the press, the fourth estate, the news, the papers; broadcasting, publishing. USAGE media, medium Strictly speaking, the first is the plural of the second ( the media were overreacting ). But media —as a shortened form of communications media —is increasingly used as a mass noun ( the media was overreacting ). While that usage still makes some squeamish, it must be accepted as standard. But it's still possible (and preferable ) to draw the line at medias, which has recently raised its ugly head —e.g.: “The staff will use several medias [read media ] and visuals to help get their points across. ” ( Virginian-Pilot & Ledger Star [Norfolk ]; Jan. 17, 1996.) Mediums is the correct plural when the sense of medium is “a clairvoyant or spiritualist ”—e.g.: “Contact is initiated by the deceased, and no psychics, mediums or devices are involved. ” ( St. Petersburg Times; Oct. 14, 1996.) Otherwise, the form should be avoided —e.g.: “Reporters for printed mediums [read media ] also focus criticism on television for using all-purpose experts to express an opinion on a wide variety of subjects.” ( New York Times; May 4, 1990.).Usage notes show additional guidance on finer points of English usage.
