David Feuerstein's Jersey Shore Article - 0 views

  •  
    In this article they are not talking a lot about the plot and setting about Jersey Shore. Rather, they are talking about the word guido and the stereotype this show is making. This article is saying that the word guido is a word that is very offensive to all Italian Americans. They say the word guido is a very offensive word for Italian Americans and they are shocked by how MTV is using it like it means nothing on network television. The article definitely has a point because the word guido is a very demeaning word for Italian Americans. The article talks about how the word guido is not the term you could usually call someone and pretend it's not a big deal. They say that because of the show Jersey Shore, it is a much more common word and it is making the population of young Italian Americans look bad.

Period H assignment about media literacy - 0 views

  •  
    This article is about the concept of teaching young kids how to be "media literate." This article believes that it is very important for the kids to learn about media because it is important to know how to use media and analyze media. In the 21st century media is the most used resource in the world. This article believes that media is the best way to bring news into your home and be able to comprehend what is going on in the outside world. To be able to read media and analyze it is probably the most important skill in today's environment and without it you would not be able to fetch news from the web and have the freedom and choice to surf the web and be part of the big overall community. In my opinion all kids should be taught media literacy so they can thrive in the open world.
