Length: 4:46
Description: I think it gives an overall look at where media is today and how it has effected our everyday lives. It gives data and facts which I thought was very cool and they did it in a creative way.
Chapter name: It honestly includes all the parts in the book Mass Media.
Question: Is the decline in news paper sales due to the internet? Or...Has social networking sites shaped society to be materialistic?
Answer: YES to both.

Movie

Write 1-2 sentences about your favorite movie of 2009-10 and why you liked it. Write 1-2 more sentences about your all-time favorite movie and why you like it. In which format(s) did you first see these movies? Add links to both in rottentomatoes.com or IMDB.com  Bonus: find and embed (not just link) a trailer for one of the movies. 




Ah! Its so hard to just pick one. There are a few that are so good you can watch them over and over ANNDD over..I think my favorite movie might be the first Twilight, cliche I know but it is a really good movie. I think its the forbidden love aspect makes it so powerful. Picking my all time favorite movie is super hard to pick because when I was a kid I use to watch the same movie everyday for like a month! The movie Stepmom with Julia Roberts is one of my favorites. I saw Stepmom when I was young and Twilight just recently came out.

I HAVE NOOO IDEA!!!

Magazine Proposal

Name: How does it differ: A lot of magazines I read all have a lot of sob articles about how their boyfriends cheated on them which is annoying. I don't want my magazine to be based on sex and relationships. I want mine to be feminist, incorporate "girl power" but also have some politics/ news from all over the world that people should be informed about. It will be professional, witty and fun. I also want my magazine to have a fashion section which will have sexy laid back clothes that are comfortable and affordable and of course gossip on celebrities. I will ask for feed back from my readers so I know what I can Improve and so I know what the readers want more of. Its different because I think it will end up controversial from the content which will encourage women to be independent and live life to the fullest by feeling good about who they are. 


Readers: I think it will catch a lot of attention among women in their twenties and thirties. It will probably reach out to middle/upper class and people to like to feel good about themselves and have an opinion.


Other Magazines: I have never read it but supposedly "Bitch", allure, cosmopolitan minus so much sex and relationships. 

Investors/advertisers: I want my investor to be Perez Hilton!!! I want Bare Minerals make up, Nike, Fekkai Hair products, o.p.i nail polish and Tiffany and co.


5 articles: Get everything you want, Don't settle for less than you best, think pink (Susan G Komen article october is breast cancer awareness month), Perez Hilton's blogs (he wont put on the internet all the blogs, he will save a certain amount that he favorites to put in the magazine to get people to buy it), Politics, who cares and best places to get pampered. 

BOOKS

There is one book that i've really enjoyed and stuck with me in my lifetime of reading.The  Catcher and the Rye has influenced me and people throughout the world because of Holden's confusion, anger and how he expresses it(which is by acting rebellious). Many teenagers can relate to the frustration about life that Holden has but also the coming of age story is also why its an awesome book.

Media Impact

My media impact project is going to revolve around reality t.v. affect people unconsciously . I am going to do a series of cultural and gender studies on the reality t.v. shows Jersey Shore, Bad Girls Club, and The Real World. Reality t.v. is expanding in our society and it alters the way people interact with one another. I think I'm going to try and prove that people (including younger generations) mimic the way reality t.v. stars act. I predict that people believe in too much of what they see on t.v.
