For my second article I chose to analyze "Social Media Study Finds Link Between Media Use AndRelationship Satisfaction". This article discusses how if a married couple communicates over several different media channels it could actually hurt their marriage. A study was done that if a couple communicates on more than 5 different social media channels the happiness of their relationship drops 14%. They feel as though too many channels can undermine the relationship.

I think that this article is very true. If your married can't you just talk to your spouse face to face? Maybe crack down on the social media time when you are together. I don't think there is any reason that people need to communicate with each other via social media if they are with each other a majority of the time.
