Most forums and blogs are text-based or primary text. There is no blog sharing only images/videos/audio as posts. Also no such forum.
That would be my key differentiation - forums and IRC is social, but not really media.

Printed media is definately media, and so are blogs. The social part of it is how people can interact with it.

I think the focus is digital media, and in that space media is the short of multimedia.
