Kant believes that it is wrong for us to use someone as a mere means. This means that it is wrong to deceive or threaten others. However, Kane states there is nothing wrong about using a person as a means. Therefore, I believe Kant would be okay with the interviews in today’s comedy shows.

For example, Jimmy Kimmel Live is a great late-night comedy talk show in today’s society. On Jimmy Kimmel Live, the interviewer and person getting interview acts as a means. The interviewer uses the person getting interview as a means to earn money. In addition, the person getting interview uses the interview as a means to express their opinions. Although TV shows such as Jimmy Kimmel Live interviews random pedestrians, the show treats people in interviews

    Sympathy In Perr Capote's In Cold Blood

    Comparing Dr. Martin Luther King's I Ve Been To The Mountain Top

    How many public speeches have you heard? Since I was a kid, I have been a fan of great public figures making historical speeches, especially during a time of crisis. Notably, one of my favorite public speeches was given on April 3, 1968, by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., entitled, “I’ve Been to the Mountain Top”, which was the very last speech he gave and is considered an iconic moment in American history. Keep in mind, Dr. King was assassinated the following day.

    The Post-Network Era

    The emergence of the post-network era along with the rise of convergence in the media industry has brought along a series of changes in the way society views, produces, and critically engages with media. The effects of these changes have been argued to be both positive and negative. One effect I see from these changes is the increase of representation and empowerment of oppressed and minority groups, including women. The increase of content targeted at niche audiences, edgy content that pushes boundaries, and legitimation of media content are changes brought on by the post-network era that bring representation and power to women.…

    Bias In The Media Essay

    The portrayal of current events in the media wields a formidable power over the opinions of its viewers. By watching or reading the news, the recipients are formulating their own judgements on the content based off of the supposedly objective information given. However, if the media chose to broadcast false or biased news, it could affect the mindsets of the entire nation and rally support for a private agenda while misusing freedom of the press to spread lies. The media also has the power to choose which stories to broadcast and some important events are not relayed to the public at all because of personal opinions and agendas. Representation in the media is flawed because of the bias in which the news portrays people, events, and organizations.…

    Media and Race: How it Effects Society For many years, the media has dominated the communication world. With the advancement of technology, media is constantly around more than one may realize. What one also may fail to realize is how much of a role the media plays on shaping today’s society and race relations.
