Saturday, October 25, 2008. Blog #1 10.25.08. Chapter 24: Media Ecology. When reading chapter 24 in "The Age of Literacy." section, I was really impacted by the final sentence of the section. The statement says:. When oppressed people learned to read, they became independent thinkers." (316). Believe it was a major step in achieving freedom. It has obviously allowed these two groups, once looked u pon. As a lesser race or being, whom now make up 50% of our presidential candidates. Blog #2 10.25.08. Deetz...

Friday, December 5, 2008. Blog #1 12.05.08. Chapter 36: Common Threads in Comm Theories. While reading the Motivation Thread, I really was able to connect with the NEED FOR CONTROL. It says that “The excessive need for control exhibited by powerful group and organizational leaders is what makes critical theories necessary” in reference to Deetz’ theory.

Saturday, November 1, 2008. Blog #2 11.01.08. I really like the conversation around media and its effects. I worked at a newspaper for a while and it was very interesting how the writers decided on what stories would be printed in the paper. I would hear them hash out what the target demographic of the newspaper was, and how the story was relevant. To one of those particular readers. I really like the quote that McCombs. Has that says " Don't. Opinion (most of the time) and facts around the story. In cha...

Saturday, October 18, 2008. Blog #3 10.19.08. I have to be totally honest and say that I had a hard time grasping the concept in chapter 23 based on Narrative Paradigm. From what I could understand, Fisher is saying that everyone is a storyteller, but how one views the story is the concept of Narrative Paradigm. I would welcome anyone's comments on this blog just based on my struggle to understand the subject and theory in the chapter. And other study tools on the publisher's website. Week 5; Post 3.

Friday, November 14, 2008. Blog #1 11.14.08. I first thought: "how interesting." I never considered women in cartoons and what the illustrator. Was portraying women to to say and do. The results of the research were surprising. Consider women to be a muted group. As we saw with the political elections two women representing both sides of the isle running for President as well as Vice President. I know I shouldn't. Base my entire view. Feel that he or she would represent their values, beliefs and opinions.

Saturday, October 25, 2008. Blog #2 10.25.08. Chapter 24: Media Ecology. I really appreciated the analysis. Of Al Gore's inconvenient truth at the opening of chapter 24. I worked in Media Sales for a few years, and we analysed. The movie An Inconvenient Truth and its effects on people. It is so amazing to me how media can mold an entire generation. When I was growing up, everyone was scared of AIDS. While it is still important to protect yourself as much as possible from contracting AIDS, I don't. I thin...

Saturday, November 1, 2008. Blog #1 11.01.08. Chapter 28: Agenda Setting Theory. What a great chapter for the times we are in! This made me really take a step back and think about how I felt about Obama and the media's support. I also thought about the props in this election. People want to know what the candidates beliefs and plans are, and they want to know what the props are really about. Should we rely on media or do our own research? I think the majority of research.
