Misconduct in News Media News media has evolved for almost thirty-five years because of Internet usage, leaving a great milestone in world history; now advanced in technology, social media has pulled itself in the world of news media, giving a window to viewers to read and reflect on news media without even knowing it. However, according to Tim Graham, social media has been put in a harsh spot because of the inaccuracy of sources within stories. In Paul Farhi’s “Why Everyone (It Seems) Hates the News Media,” he puts more detail in that statement by stating that social media have not been that friendly with journalists. Since the year 1984, Internet Usage has advanced in technology, making it useful not just nationwide but worldwide as well. Yet, to Graham, social media, and news media have been put in harsh spots because of the open access. Tim Graham 's statement is very realistic for the fact that social media has played a major factor of damaging the reputation of news media. To begin with, the Errors and Scandals are always considered unexpected and surprising, according to viewers. Yet, there has been a lot more scandals occurring that impacts the honesty of journalists.. An example that can be explained further is Erik Wemple’s The disaster of the ’60 Minutes’ Benghazi story. Wemple summarizes the incident of 60 Minutes’ Benghazi, Libya reported by Lara Logan from source, Dylan Davies, using the pen name, “Morgan Jones.” Wemple had found the error after Davies has…

What is in Control? In Deleuze’s essay on the “Postscript on the Societies of Control” he explains that we have moved from a disciplinary society to a society of control. He uses Foucault’s description of the disciplinary society to move into the control society. The disciplinary society we once lived in has us moving from one closed environment to another, with each holding its own form of law and expectations. From home, to school, to factory, we used to move in these enclosed environments,…

interviews, events leading up to the Holocaust, historical records, Eichmann’s own personal history as well as Arendt’s own analysis of Eichmann. After the last chapter, XV: Judgement, Appeal, and Execution, there is a short Epilogue that talks about Eichmann’s punishment, the issues with the Nuremberg Tribunal, since there was no precedence on how to try international war crimes at the time, as well as how acts of genocide should be legally prosecuted. Succeeding the Epilogue is the Postscript,…

At times he has been slightly ambiguous. His writings in the Structures of Scientific Revolutions have been understood to be very radical in their implications, especially his claim that proponents of opposing paradigms “live in different worlds” (Kuhn, 2012). This view met with very strong resistance within the scientific community, since at the time it was commonly held that one paradigm could be determined to be superior to another by a simple assessment of the evidence for each. In his 1969…

The Vietnam War was a conflict based on issues that were economic, cultural, political, and territorial based. The reason why I chose the Vietnam War is that it is shows a conflict that isn’t only on one specific issue, but it involves several and the conflict was a long, tragic war where there were many lives were lost. It is explained in the Vietnam Postscript in the Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia that the conflict mainly took place in South Vietnam. The conflict continued between North…

with his ideas of expanding definitions (173). By expanding the definitions of “colony” to anyone who feels oppressed under any type of regime; for example, slaves oppressed by masters, women by men, and even France itself oppressed by financial turmoil, and “revolution” to meaning “a war for independence,” Serna is able to unify all of these articles under a unifying theme of fighting against oppression. If there was a Davies’ chapter that this text would fall under it would be the…

Henry’s work is created in response to the original ‘The Piano Lesson’. Henry Symonds has always been fascinated by the ‘contrast between the measured, poised, serene interior space speaking of quiet domesticity and the ghastly chaos and horror of battle – geographically contiguous but dramatically removed in terms of lived experience’ ‘Postscript’ is an informal article of writing directed to the artist Henry Symonds. In ‘Postscript’, Gary Carter writes in 1st person, so the audience reads the…

This encyclopedia’s title in itself should trigger questions from the reader, because the ‘third orb’ from the sun in this universe’s solar system is in fact the Earth, which alarmingly implies that Tlon may not be as imaginary as initially thought, but in fact a planet lost to the evolution of modern society. Tlon’s entire existence is reliant solely on solipsism, and while the theory of solipsism is shunned by scientific study due to the reality that cause-and-effect is reliant upon the direct…

characters. She explains that they use their power to both promote the dictatorship revolution and also the partiarchtical revolution. She talks a little more about the strength that Maria Teresa’s “confessional diary” had in recording the revolution. She uses the example of the girls using their hair as a way to transport things behind the guards back. This is a type of subjugated knowledge the girls have. That theme is shown in her other two books also. I feel like this point was pretty…
