The content conveyed by the entertainment media is a diverse one, including images with emotional and aggressive content with different effects on adolescents᾽ behaviour. The stage of adolescence and youth within the life span is a stage of knowledge accumulation. Through this paper we intended to explore the informational content of media consumed by adolescents in the investigated group, the daily time allocated to media consumption and their level of empathy. More than 100 adolescents from Serbia completed a self-report questionnaire. The conclusions highlighted an increased consumption and no criteria for filtering the entertainment media. Finally, we propose some research and intervention recommendations for directing the online activities of adolescents in relation with the time spent online but also to the content of the materials covered.
