Most of us perceive Brazil as the country of Carnival, nice sandy beaches and sunshine - on the surface, Brazil is a country which enjoys religious peace. Or does it? What most people don't know - and up to a point, the international media too - is the raise of religious fundamentalism in Brazil in the last 15 years or so -the last place on Earth one could associate with that. To understand a bit what's been happening, let me tell you a little about the country's religious history: Brazil is…

opinion? Well, my opinion is that children of this generation do spend far to much time in front of screens. I have seen that as the technology becomes more and more advanced, we as a humanity are fragmenting ourselves. Devices like phones and televisions consume the minds of our youth and they distorting communication skills. These electronics also in my view strip people of their pressious imagination. I agree with all of what is said in the first passage and from what i know about…

First of all, No thirteen year olds should not be allowed to watch rated R movies because the movies could give off the effect of their…

Compare and Contrast Sitcom- Essay Throughout the decades we as viewers witnessed various family TV sitcoms evolve as generation’s change, with many managing to maintain several of the same family core values. I strongly feel that The Brady Bunch, which debuted in the 1960’s and Full House debuting in the 1990’s best illustrate a significant gap between two generations of families that share similarities amongst family values despite their difference in family structure and roles. Both sitcoms…

Whoever thought that a television show, about six dirty kids in the slums of Chicago, living with a drunk father would make me a better person. First off, I did not live in the slums of a major city. I lived in a nice town, with a lot of nice people. I also did not have an alcoholic for a father, so me connecting to the show did not seem likely. That is until, I got a closer look into the problems and flaws of all the Gallagher children. They made me happy, they made me cry, they made me laugh…

In the late 20th and early 21st centuries television and movies have been controlled by the FCC (Federal Communications Commission) everything we view is regulated in some way by the government. We had acts enforced, rules established and other types of regulations. The FCC is like the police for broadcasting it can fine broadcasters for violating anything that airs on television. The FCC has done this many times before for example an article from CNN.com posted in June, 2012 by Bill Mears…

America is not the Greatest Country is the first episode of HBO’s new television series The Newsroom. A news anchor, Will McAvoy, is seated between a strong liberalist, Susan, and a conservative, Lewis, on a journalism panel.
