Answer:

Agenda setting theory

Step-by-step explanation:

Agenda setting theory suggests that people rely on the media to get information and that social institutions use the media to interact with the audience to create interests and needs. This is a social science theory that suggests that the audience is easily influenced by the media. Agenda setting theory was first developed by McCombs and Shaw.
