What an old man can teach a kid are the lessons which are treasured or brought until the adult stage of a man,these teachings are somehow the reason of our choices today.In terms of media,the "old" can be preferred as the established or the constructed or the starting age of technology and communication,we wouldn't have a modernized media if we didn't started from huge cellular phones,books,heavy typewriters.The spread of media has been a lot faster today since everyone has an idea of how and what to improve in the current media just like books,it is required to make revisions.
Media had also made all things accessible even old media,it is now accessible in a modernized way.
Old media teaches us to make use of all the available information but not to rely on just a single source,because have you seen a current issue being announced only in one television station?No and the thing which is importantly taught to us is to have a contact with whom you are having a conversation with,because who knows if who you're talking to is a dog,an alien or a female pretending to be a male and that's one main reason why people have the guts to cyberbully since they don't know what expression a person can make behind the screen.
Although both medias share similarities,new media is always the improved version of the old media and both of them gives a balance of positives and negatives to a person.
