Muckraking for me means when a person seeks deeper information to degrade or underhand someone for publication. There are three specific types of muckraking which are; simple muckraking, leaping impact muckraking, and truncated muckraking. We often see this particular term in plenty of articles online, especially in national news. Examples of muckraking tend to arise information that people did not know, information that comes to light. Graber & Dunaway (2015) state in the text, “These examples…

The names of the family involved in the Harambe incident were leaked to the media, so how does one remove the family names from the media? It isn’t possible to take back something once it is out there. However, Gail Myers worked to place herself between the media and the family to preserve some of the family’s anonymity. As the owner of Gail Myers Public Relations, LLC, Gail Myers has over 30 years of experience in public relations. “When the family contacted me and asked for my help in…

1. Before watching this Ted Talk video, I did think I was a some what, decent listener. I believed this because during conversations, I always liked to truly understand what the other person is trying to communicate to me before I answer back or giving a reply -- which led me to believing I was a good listener. After watching it, I realized, and also am surprised, that my listening skills do need some revamping because I know I do not ever take some time to sit in silence and would never think…

race and conspiracy more prominent influences than fact in the jury’s verdict. Hearing Shapiro’s message drew me toward the realization that both modern politics and the journalists moderating the establishment echo his doctrine. Contemporary journalism has developed into an era of twenty-four hour news cycles and social media. In the quest to constantly broadcast ‘fresh’ and interesting stories in an age of vines, snapchat and six second attentions, controversy has become King. The difference…

many journalism ethics is for news companies to inform the audience with news and point out the problems that are occurring in society. Although, many people may say that hard news does not bring profit that is false. For many decades the people were interested in hard news and were informed on real news but the news has changed it’s focus on soft news and the profits. As a result, the news companies have become less trustworthy due to the fact that they focus on profits rather than journalism…

I much rather have it wrote in a matter of fact manner detailing the events of the figures life as opposed to making it into a fairy tale. This holds true for true crime novels, another favorite topic I like to read. However, I do read up on many genres including fiction. The open dialogue between realism and imagination balancing interpretation with the reader is fascinating. I love how it can open the mind up to many sides of human nature. Do you think literature provides a reflection of life…

assessment question as it analysis’ how influential Assange and his project was, resulting into a bigger effect other than just the effect of the leaks on the Government. The strength of this source is that it approves of the anti-censorship movement in “journalism”, the changing dynamic of the press-political relationship. These are considered as strengths of Zayani’s work as it favours a certain perspective compared to other sources which enables varied opinion. The weakness of the journal is…

I will be the first to admit that I do not stay on top of current events as much as I should. I find it very confusing to keep track of what is going on in America and around the rest of the world. How can you understand the history of all of these difficult situations and try to make sense of why things are happening? How can I get facts about something that is happening so far away from me? The media is supposed to help us with these decisions by reporting accurate and unbiased facts. The…

Media bias is the bias in journalism and news production for the mass media inside selections of cases and stories and how they are addressed. Media bias can be found anywhere in the media related to very controversial topics such as, abortion, gun control, and majorly in politics. This is nothing new but what is new the shameless ways of blurring/nudging the truth in line with marketing. The blurring of truth hinders the average consumers mind and blurs all the facts and different perspectives…
