  • But really, does anyone think that in 2020—or maybe even 2015—we'll still have big-money television ad buys, regardless of who's paying for them?

      Purpose- this situation happened and made people interested
  •  
    The outrage was immediate: The Supreme Court decision that struck down restrictions on the use of corporate funds in political advertising, Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, is "devastating to the public interest" (President Obama) and a "disastrous rollback" of campaign finance laws (MoveOn.Org) and promises a "windfall" (New York Times) of big-money television ad buys by groups like the U.S.

Angela Cook Jackson, another Emerson professor who co-founded eLEEP with Mihailidis, runs a summer workshop on media literacy for high schoolers in the summer.

  • "Facebook is transformed from a public space to a behavioral laboratory," says the study, which cites a Harvard-based research project of 1,700 college-based Facebook users in which it became possible to "deanonymize parts of the data set," or cross-reference anonymous data to make student identification possible.
  • Facebook data scientist Adam Kramer, of the Menlo Park, Calif.-based company, outlined what the company is learning as part of the Society for Personality and Social Psychology meeting in Austin. Its president, social psychologist James Pennebaker, of the University of Texas-Austin, says privacy is a big issue for the research world.
  • "Facebook especially, and Microsoft, is scared to death about privacy issues," he says. "A bunch of researchers have access to everybody's posts and Facebook is built on what's yours is private. They are struggling with the problem the same way as the scientific community."
  • Attorney and privacy expert Parry Aftab, of New York City — a member of Facebook's Safety Advisory Board — suggests that users shouldn't worry because the very large companies such as Twitter, Google, Microsoft and Facebook have privacy policies for users."The sites will never provide personally identifiable information unless they have the consent of the users. And there is legal recourse if they're using it in any other way," she says.

How TV Affects Your Child - 0 views

  • The average American child will witness 200,000 violent acts on television by age 18
  • While watching TV, kids are inactive and tend to snack.
  • Studies have shown that decreasing the amount of TV kids watched led to less weight gain and lower body mass index
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • Limit the number of TV-watching hours: Stock the room in which you have your TV with plenty of other non-screen entertainment (books, kids' magazines, toys, puzzles, board games, etc.) to encourage kids to do something other than watch the tube. Keep TVs and internet connections out of bedrooms. Turn the TV off during meals. Don't allow kids to watch TV while doing homework. Treat TV as a privilege to be earned — not a right. Establish and enforce family TV viewing rules, such as TV is allowed only after chores and homework are completed.
  • TV and other electronic media can get in the way of exploring, playing, and interacting with parents and others, which encourages learning and healthy physical and social development.
  • Have your kids watch public television stations (some programs are sponsored — or "brought to you" — by various companies, although the products they sell are rarely shown). Record programs — without the commercials. Buy or rent children's videos or DVDs.
  • TV is full of programs and commercials that depict risky behaviors (such as drinking alcohol, doing drugs, smoking cigarettes, and having premarital sex) as cool, fun, and exciting. And often, there's no discussion about the consequences of those actions.
  • But despite its advantages, too much television can be detrimental: Children who consistently spend more than 4 hours per day watching TV are more likely to be overweight. Kids who view violent acts are more likely to show aggressive behavior but also fear that the world is scary and that something bad will happen to them. TV characters often depict risky behaviors, such as smoking and drinking, and also reinforce gender-role and racial stereotypes.
  • And although they've banned cigarette ads on television, kids and teens can still see plenty of people smoking on programs and movies airing on TV. This kind of "product placement" makes behaviors like smoking and drinking alcohol seem acceptable. In fact, kids who watch 5 or more hours of TV per day are far more likely to begin smoking cigarettes than those who watch less than the recommended 2 hours a day.
  • The first 2 years of life are considered a critical time for brain development

  •  
    Children that are exposed to television before the age of two, and more than two hours a week are more likely to see violence, risky behaviors, and are more likely to become obese. There is a rating system to help parents restrict their kids from watching specific programs. This article also teaches parents good habits to use while watching TV.

      Purpose: This gives the reader has a clear understanding of what the writer is trying to explain.
  • This highlighting of the media is a negative effect on society. They satiate the people’s hunger for trivial information and rumors. They create buzz by hyping the issues with flowery words and provoking descriptions. Controversies are created left and right to get the attention of people
    • Kyle Palandech
       
      Relevance: This is what we have been talking about all semester. Finding issues and information without looking at the content/author.  
  • The changes in the behavior and outlook of people towards life are attributable to the negative psychological effects of media. Changes in cultural and moral values have been observed.

Media Shapes Society - Journalism 3.0 | Sveriges Radio - 0 views

  • The little Vietnamese girl Kim Phuc ran away from her napalm-bombed village of Trang Bang, past the lens of cameraman Alan Downes, and into the whole world’s awareness of USA’s war in Southeast Asia. The Vietnam War became impossible to wage in the age of television.
    • Kyle Palandech
       
      Authority and Accuracy: This was a live event caught on camera in Vietnam. It showed how real war is and the media exposed the world to what was going on at the time. 
  • FORM AND CONTENT. There’s a common logic in media: That which suits television is aired on television; if something makes a good headline, it’s placed on the front page of the newspaper.   In this way, media shapes society. Media technology determines the content. And the content in media determines images of society. But perhaps it’s not that simple. The interaction between technological, political and commercial forces can be significantly more complex
    • Kyle Palandech
       
      Purpose: This is giving the reader a preview of what the webpage is about. Gives the reader the reason the content is important
  • The development of newspapers is closely tied to the emerging formation of political parties in Europe and North America. Henry Jarvis Raymond, a journalist and politician, founded the New York Times in 1851. He was a Whig, that is, he belonged to the political party that was the forerunner of today’s Republican Party, and the establishment of the newspaper was, in part, a political project.

  • A more reflective consideration of the relationship between media and society might find this simple marketing analysis lacking in substance. The Swedish media researcher Göran Bolin  writes, in a paper on libraries, that it isn’t “a question of society being ‘mediafied’ through the transformation of information but, rather, that society itself is enclosed in human communication, in the way we all communicate with each other.”
    • Kyle Palandech
       
      Relevance: This explains how media and society intertwine with each other and how media researchers today still are looking at how it affects the world. 
  • Those of us active in media will look for the influence of new technology on media and media structure, not least because the effects in this area of society have been so tangible. The new technology affects media and media structure directly.
