Although the idea of having an equal society sounds pleasing there are disadvantages. The author of “Harrison Bergeron” uses word choice and characterization to portray the potential drawbacks of having an equal society. He also uses technology and television to help support his message and help the reader connect to issues in modern society. Vonnegut, the author of “Harrison Bergeron”, uses characterization and word choice as a way to warn his readers of the potential disadvantages of a…

through news. In the late 1940’s television was introduced as the new era in public communication (“Has Television Reshaped Politics?”). People saw all the possibilities and saw that this was the beginning of something great. Frank Stanton, president of Colombia Broadcasting System said, “Not even the sky is the limit.” Television was made to inform and stimulate the political interests of the American electorate (“Has Television Reshaped Politics?”). “Television, with its penetration, its wide…

I believe that movies, music, and television shows play an important role in influencing cultures. Especially well-known movies, like Easy Rider, could impact the viewers’ perceptions. This movie showed a “hippies” counter-culture (Ferris & Stein, 2014) in the U.S. that many Americans did not know about, such that they considered the behaviors in the culture to be deviant (Ferris & Stein, 2014) that they need to be punished. The way George and Billy were killed by the rednecks in the movie…

Mike, sorry I'm late,” Jim Stanfield said as he placed his brown-bag lunch along with his book of crossword puzzles down onto his desk located directly across from Mike's. “No biggie,” shrugged Mike Kaputtie barely glancing up from the small television set he’d been glued to—an old black-and-white episode of the Andy Griffith Show was playing on its tiny screen. The graveyard shift so far that night at Airingdale Cryogenics, like all shifts at A.C. was slow, but midnights were by far…

In “The Allegory of the Cave,” an important distinction is made between two types of people, people who are blissfully ignorant and people who are painfully enlightened. The people who are blissfully ignorant choose to see things as they think they are; they mistake appearance for reality. These are the people who remain shackled to the wall, are unable to move their legs or heads, and, “see only their own shadows, or the shadows of one another” (Plato 587). These people remain in the darkness,…

The health campaign I have chosen is a Finnish PSA meant to discourage alcohol abuse and/ or alcoholism in adults who serve as parents or guardians. The video opens with a montage of frightened and upset children looking at something in a distasteful manor. Then, in junction with a blast of jarring music, the camera focuses on an unsettling monster sitting across from a little girl. This is when the video flashes from child to child showing them with creepy, disturbing, or scary adults dressed…

In May, actor Jamie Foxx received criticism for his disrespectful mockery of sign language, which he used during his recent appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Foxx appeared on the show to promote his new Fox game show, “Beat Shazam.” As host Fallon was going to commercial, actor Foxx made several hand gestures that were meant to mimic a sign language interpretation of what Fallon was saying, making Fallon laugh. However, all the “signs” were made up, as Foxx was attempting a…

Canadian ice hockey and 2014, American football concerning the abuse of coaches to children. It is juvenile/naïve to think that this only occurs within the dance industry, which is what the media has portrayed, and what the readers believe. An ABC television report conducted interviews with parents of dancers who were recently dragged into the spotlight over their ‘over sexualized, provocative’ dance. The parents answered to accusations about letting their children dressing like prostitutes and…
