History of Mass communication in Oman: Al Nizar village

Mass communication is the term used to describe the academic study of the various means by which individuals and entities relay information through mass media to large segments of the population at the same time. It is usually understood to relate to newspaper and magazine publishing, radio, television and film, as these are used both for disseminating news and for advertising.

 Although communication technology has altered our way of life and brought about changes in various aspects in Omani society, it critically important to refer to the history of communication and mass communication development in Oman.  The past always helps new generations understand who they are and how they should relate to each other, so do communication!
