In my discussion section we discussed the difference between a central and peripheral advertisement. However, I left wondering which category an infomercial falls into? Is it a central advertisement or a peripheral advertisement? #UWJ201 #318

In a time if crisis conspiracy theories tend to run wild according to one of the readings this week. My question is if there was an ability to do what Reddit does, by putting a topic before the post such as rant or debate, what benefit or harm might come to conspiracy theories? #UWJ201 #318

In my discussion class we emphasized a question that I continue to think about and will continue to question: is the media bias or are we bias? #UWJ201 #318

In the fourth reading this week we read about how Americans data is being used for different things, such as stopping a terrorist threat, but has that actually been proven to work or is it just a ploy for people to see each others data? #UWJ201 #318

Yesterday we learned about mean world syndrome and the negative effects it has on people and their beliefs. Do you think that news outlets use framing to worsen the impacts of mean world syndrome? #UWJ201 #318

Last lecture we discussed Framing and how it works. It reminds me of Zohnerism and how you can make water seem worse than it is; but my question is about whether or not framing is considered misinformation or media bias, and at what point does it cross a line and become dangerous? #UWJ201 #318

Today in class we talked about how journalism was a patrol-alarm hybrid, as well as how it was first to inform even with entertainment. My question is if there is an alarm going off how much entertainment will added into the story to get more people to read it? #UWJ201 #318

In the reading “Horse race reporting of elections can harm voters, candidates, news outlets: What the research says.” I took particular interest in why voters would not turn out if they did not see their candidate winning. How can we use switch this narrative to get people to vote more? #UWJ201 #318

Q: in Monday’s lecture it was discussed how people only get news from one opinion such as MSNBC and Fox News; so I am wondering, are the goal of these channels are less to inform or more to divide? #UWJ201 #318
