What is Media Mouse?
1.
A person who does,says,thinks and believes everything popular culture and/or the media tells them to.
This term comes from the fact that these people follow the popular media like mice follow the dominant mouse in a cage or in a mousehole.
Often old enough to think for themselves, but are often too lazy or too obsessed with conformity and being liked to do so.

We'll make a fortune!"
