This study sought to explore the paradigmatic model of relationship between the youth and media in Shiraz. To this end, we focused on a group research whose analysis is based on grounded theory models. Results of the explored concepts showed that the youth: have high creativity and low rationality; their idea is pattern acceptor and critical; their view to domestic media is with mistrust, they believe domestic media are purposefully selective and so they've got more trust to foreign media. The leisure time is managed by the youth which is highly affected with cyberspace. They focus more on modern media than the traditional. They believe that domestic media malfunctions with specific orientation and emotional terms. Media in our country needs to consider the quality of its interaction with the youth lifestyle as its biggest portion of audience. It should also consider the vast social changes and formation of the new social-networks.

Media management is a new research field in the world. In our country, this discipline is new-fangled and thus not all the dimensions are reviewed yet. Unfortunately, this scientific discipline is strongly under the influence of management in industrial organizations while there are essential differences between them. Therefore, one primary theoretical and applied measure is understanding the essential difference between media and industrial organizations so that media managers and researchers apart from this verbal similarity which roots in their reality as organization, concern their differences as well. A better understanding of media management and its reality will result in better management of this kind of organization. This article therefore is an attempt to describe media organization characters and its differences with industrial organization.

Physiognomy and character of Satan as a creature driven by the Creator, has always been controversial. Satan has sworn off to divert man from the right path to his own disbelief and polytheism. Holy Quran has always warned man of Satan's deceit. According to the emphasis of the holy Quran and other sources such as the hadith narrations, character of Satan is hateful to Muslims and believers. On the other hand, world cinema and televisions as media with the highest number of audience have always tried to represent the invisible world and the paranormal.

The expansion in the utilization of any kind of new information and communication technologies can impose negative, positive and even contradictory influences among different demographic and social groups. Thus, the more knowledge and expertise of communication scholars are used, the better cultural and communicational policies can be made in order to control the negative effects and intensify the positive ones. Getting benefit of the viewpoints and solutions provided by diverse experts of media and communication will also lead to controlling the impacts of importing new communication devices. This article focuses on the teen as a significant period in constructing one's social identity. Within next pages, a general picture of the utilization pattern of mobile phone by Iranian teenagers is provided. Then, experiences from international commercial and cultural organizations and companies in this area are reviewed and eventually, some generalized strategies in developing media consumption policies are suggested. Investigating the efforts made by other societies in this field indicates that engaging different social actors, like schools, parents and teachers, will lead to a well-organized utilization pattern of cell phones among teenagers. Furthermore, it is also noted that some macro communicational strategies, such as importing or producing specialized cell phones for kids and teenagers, improving public awareness and media literacy, will help as facilitators in this process. experiences from international commercial and cultural organizations and companies in this area are reviewed and eventually, some generalized strategies in developing media consumption policies are suggested.
