For the 2nd Synthesis paper I believe it would be in the best interest to expand the first synthesis paper I wrote earlier this semester. The topic was very interesting to me and although the paper was a finished product it definitely could have been further expanded.

The paragraph will consist of reiterating both arguments and restating the opinions of authors on both sides. The paragraph will lastly consist of a sentence or two about why the negative affects of the American mass media outweigh all the good it has done for children. Finally I will wrap the paper up by expanding the length of the original conclusion. After restating the original thesis the paragraph
