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.
