Class Highlights

Some of the epiphany moments that i had were learning about books. I didn't know that editors and author had to go through so much trouble to get their book published.I didn't know that there were so many rules and regulation that one has to precede by in order for their book to be printeded. I learned that there are so many types of journalism. Learning about the newspaper industry made me consider becoming a journalist, writing about events and stoeies occuring in the community i live in. I have a great passion for music, so it is intersting for me to learn that some parts of the mussic industry is curpt. I didn't some artist or their publishes pay dj's and radio host to play their music mostly in rap and hiphop.

Media Ethics/ Media Law

One event that I read in a magazine in 2011 is about Kim Kardashian and her sister boyfriend Scott secret love. The article was untrue; however does it give the reporter to write it under freedom of speech? It cross the line on weather people should be allowed to report stories that one knows are dishonest or is appropriate under the first amendment. As well does it cross the line of privacy which should be respect towards everyone? People should be allowed to have their privacy no matter what the situation, unless one don't care that stories are out there about them.

Propaganda

In this ad the two types of propaganda that is used are glittering generalities and testimonial. It is using glittering generalities because of the slogan float like a butterfly and sting like a bee. It is saying that if you drink this drink you will will be strong like Serena Williams. It is a famous quote from Muhammad Ali. The ad also contains testimonial because the ad include a famous person that people trust and a person who is known for being strong or have energy and have experience with drinking G2.    

Internet

I know my guy friend who is consume with gaming on the internet. My friend Frank is addicted to playing video games online. He spends most of his time on his laptop playing world of war craft and ignores his daily duties. He doesn't put all of his effort into his relationship with his girlfriend because of his love for video games. It takes a huge part of his social life because he doesn't spend time with is friend, as hedid before. Now he is going out with friends more, but he still spend some time playing games online. It takes little steps i guess, his girlfriend told me that he is doing better in the relationship..

Movies or Recordings

One of my favorite movie is Romeo Must Die. I saw the movie on DVD, when i was in my last year of middle school. I first enjoyed it because my favorite singer Aaliyah was in the movie, however I realized there were reason why the movie was amazing such as the romantic characters are an African American female and a Asian Male which is unusual in the movies. The movie can also appeal to all ages and gender.My all time favorite movie is The Notebook because it was heartwarming and it made me cry. I like to watch romance and comedy movies that can make one tear up and laugh at the same time. I also think Rachel McAdams is a good actress, she can do something so horrible, but make it classy at the same time.
