Bias in the news

shaali — Sun, 11 Jan 2009 20:03:11 +0000

Its usefulness to the society and to prospective, most people individuals trust and believe the news that they watch. It is mass news media that is distrusted. The bias and value in th news are which are some issues. The issues of mistrust must be addressed through aggressive outreach so that the message is not missunderstood. The news media share cabel with cable industry because young people are moving away not just from the television to the internet, but also from the television in general. For those the cable and the news will continue to follow each step their young view go so that they could be informed.. While its important for us coming generation to get the right information and see what is happening around the world and even in our communities so that we can be a part of them and maybe change the world.

Consumer informed in Television..

Understanding the purpose and strategy of television consumer helped us be informed consumer in the industry of television.At the rate technology and the way we communicate is evolving, I’ve become reluctant to invest in any sort of device that’s supposed to “enhance my TV viewing experience”.

A major overlooked issue in my opinion is that TV is also a social phenomenon, just like any broadcast media. Its added value rest on the feeling of being part of a community when millions of viewers watch the same program at the same time.

TVtransmission of visual images of moving and stationary objects and generally simultaneous transmission of accompanying sounds by means of electrical signals. Since the introduction of commercial television broadcasts in the early 1940s, the scope of television has grown enormously. Long accepted as the primary source of entertainment and information in the home, by the late 1990s the impact of television had expanded in important nonbroadcast areas, and digital video had become an integral part of the broad field of information technology. Television patterns are formed in picture so people can be visual by people, and also the company can have more audience

Learned about Media….

Well there are a lot of things to be learned about the media especially while doing my research paper for how the media influence major subjects in our society.Technologies such as television, videos, DVDs, and computers can expand thinking skills and ignite imaginations. Also nurture a love of learning and encourage an appreciation for human diversity. I learn best from media that is engaging and developmentally appropriate.Using media in my research paper in active ways helps prepare me to interact with the content see and hears. Media also extend my learning, especially when the lessons are reinforced.

Media influence on Women (open)

shaali — Sat, 08 Nov 2008 00:42:35 +0000

Media has affected a large group of audience,but had mostly impacted women in general. Media portrays women to be ideal beauty. The way media portrays women in television, movies. and advertisements cause negative effects on women physically, and mentally. It is easy to see that through advertisements and the use of perfect models, the media is portraying an ideal body type.

The stereotype of the ideal woman is created by the extremely thin and beutiful models. Companied use this look to represent their product in advertisements. In our society women and girls tend to compare themselves to the models seen in the media. There seems to be trend between the thinness of models, and the desired thinness of today’s society of women. The thinner models get, the thinner women think they have to be.

open

Being in my media class fifth hour I have learned so many ways medium tries to use it’s technique to convince consumers.Many of these medium tried to achieve their goal on getting their attention from the consumer such as the television and internet. Over the last years television’s value were ease of use, reliability, high fidelity (professional quality), entertainment. The contrasting internet value’s we’ve come to cherish and now are coming to expect in the consumer personalization, community, openness, and relevance. Where they came from electronics devices such as iPhone, Archos and other trend-setters.

It seems to me that television and internet are competing with each to get the better and higher viewers. I believe that television is the highest viewed medium because not a lot of people have the access get internet.

analyzing magazine

shaali — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 22:51:37 +0000

One of the magazine I analyzed was the Oprah magazine. This advertising shows so many women smiling being happy at very old age. One of the advertise that caught my eyes was a group of women smiling and having a great time at a restaurant having some fancy food.The American Core Value this advertisement want to share with their consumer is that the restaurant is efficiency and usefulness.The group of women are showing their happiness to the consumers where consumer get the feeling of wanting to be there or imagining how it would be like. Some of the demographic this advertisement used was gender for women,age within 30-52yrs old, white and black mostly, fancy good looking summer seasonal place, higher education, maybe with two to one children in the family.

The advertisement showed sense of benefit for the consumer because they used very warm full colors with huge spaces for family or friends to come and enjoy their time.The loyalty the ad showed the type of food was being served and how it was being served where the food looked presentable and hard very beautiful color which makes the consumer very tasty to them. The restaurant’s attributes was social risk because I believed this is for it showed the group of women being close and they might have been best friends having money. So for that it means if you can’t come over with you and friends then can’t have as much fun out there in other restaurants and would not fit in.

Media (1996)

shaali — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 22:30:12 +0000

Twentieth century newspapers, motion pictures, radio, television, and magazines, and all of which have the technical capacity to deliver information to millions of people in which they have changed drastically. Television is a powerful medium for appealing to mass audiences—it reaches people regardless of age, sex, income, or educational level. In addition, television offers sight and sound, and it makes dramatic and lifelike representations of people and products. However, for audiences of the late the 1960s television presented certain health messages through product marketing. Some of these messages were related to toothpaste, hand soaps, multiple vitamins, and other items.

Radio requires somewhat greater audience involvement than television, creating the need for more mental imagery.Because of this, radio can reinforce complementary messages portrayed in parallel fashion on TV.

American Core Value

shaali — Thu, 06 Nov 2008 22:11:55 +0000

The most American core values I strongly feel are important are achieve and success because life is all about achieving and being successful to live in a happy life. Success. I believe you can achieve it – if you really want it. It’s true that most of us will never achieve worldwide. But that doesn’t mean we can’t be successful, or won’t be successful. Life is too short to spend it by just existing. Most of the advertisement I see on magazines are mainly about successful women being happy. A successful woman has a strong sense of purpose. She knows what she wants, why she wants it and how she plans to achieve it. Successful women also have the habit of doing things they don’t like to do so they can accomplish the purpose they have defined. Successful women also have a passion for excellence.

My home life was a classic example of pushing one another for achieve and success. My mother was an extreme optimist. She never stopped loving, believing, and dreaming. She always saw a bright side to any dark situation or circumstance. For instance she always told us, “There is absolutely nothing you cannot do or achieve.” And I believed her.She would always tell us or push my siblings and I to reach at levels she never had the chance herself.
