Rupert Murdoch: The Bad Apple Organization has a social responsibility to enhance the community in which it operates. The products created by these company can only maintain its competitive advantage if the consumers demand it. Under Rupert Murdoch leadership, key players used unethical behavior in day-to-day business decisions as a result of flowed organizational culture that failed to uphold social responsibility. Different key players who had the power to make decisions that adversely impact innocent people made unethical decisions to further the unspoken mission of greed in order to increase the revenue of Murdoch’s company and their pockets. I believe that the phone hacking was not an action of rogue journalism but instead; a much more systemic action committed by Murdoch and his…

A timeless challenge for media governance is Media Ownership. Whoever owns the media will be able to govern the media? Or should the media still be unbiased and not submit to the whims of ownership?

Media delivers us with news and information not only from our country, but from around the globe. A main section of our news is political.

The famous quote by the CBS news anchor Walter Cronkite paints a picture of what the news networks and corporations are there to do; ‘Our job is to only hold up the mirror, to tell the public what is happening.’ But that is only a slim part of…

Buster shot his head up with a loud snort, shifting from hoof to hoof, spooked by the call of a predator. "Calm down, Buster. Easy there," Aerith cooed, grasping onto the rein and tugged, gesturing him to lower his head while stroking his neck. When Buster had calmed down significantly, more howls joined the first one, each sounding closer and louder than the last.
