In the first video two important pieces of information are at the first when the lady describes what media literacy is, and how it affects us, and the second piece of important information is when the man towards the end of the video says he believes there are two trends in the media and he says they are corporatism, consolidation, centralization, the other trend is diversity, local ism, independence. Media Literacy when you think about it media means descriptive of any type of communication, literacy means to read or create.
In the second video two important pieces of information are when the lady addresses the different questions a lot of people have about the media they watch and hear. And another important piece of information is when she said what she thought about media literacy. The junk values have been high over the past 5 years, companies are always trying to sell us something on advertisements. Media is a reflection on how people live their lives, because if someone watched violent shows and advertisements all their life that person is going to want to live their life violent.
Jarrett,
ReplyDeleteYou provided a great summary of some of the issues in the videos, but it is not until the end of your post that you offer your opinion. Your argument on how media influences us and your example of violence is an issue that has many sides. We will be exploring and discussing this issue more and it is interesting you mentioned it in your post.
