Binary Models Lecture(J1)

During our lecture on binary models I found it very interesting that there were so many different models because I only realized that forms of communication were either information or entertainment. I had no idea that information-entertainment was a binary model. The other models were really interesting to talk about because of the fact that you can fit any form of mass communication into one of the categories for each model. During the lecture I wondered if the elitist-populist model could be conglomerated because of it's relationship to the information-entertainment model which can be conglomerated into "infotainment". Is it possible for a media organization to try and get their version of important news out to the people while trying to get a big audience?
