Read the paper and determine the aspects that qualifies something to become a social institution. Apply these essential traits to an
analysis of our current major social institutions to determine if they indeed fit, or if not, which ones might prove to be problematic. Explain
how the author used his summation of the notion of a social institution as an argument to make the claim that media is a social institution.
