Other Issues Media and Society

-
I visited five different blogs that I found incredibly interesting and related them back to the internet and media.

1. https://childrenandthemediabymaddie.blogspot.com

Madeline Milne talks about the issues children have now a days with using technology and the media too much. Instead of going outside and playing with our friends like we did as kids, kids in today's society are too consumed in the media.

2. https://mediaeffects724151893.wordpress.com/

Jeremy Haley writes about the effects media has on children and how the attention of span of children is now lacking. It is important to see this so we can take care of it right away.

3. https://fakenewsmediaintheus.blogspot.com

Gavin Carroll's blog is all about Fake News. In the world we are living in, especially in the United States, news outlets are taking over peoples opinions and formulating fake news in people's minds. An example of this is with Fox News and CNN News.

4. https://mediaandsocietycyberbullying.blogspot.com/

Andrea Taylor's blog is about the importance in noticing cyberbullying. It is so easy to bully someone using the internet. People are too afraid to bully or say something mean to someone face to face. The internet has turned into a place where someone can hide behind a computer screen and bully someone.

5. https://emilaliyev457139532.wordpress.com/

Emil Aliyev blog is about how crime movies can effect people. Young children, teenagers, or adults can see crime being taken place on a television screen and think it is okay to do so as well. It can be argued that these kinds of movies are hurting the minds of young people.

People have not argued that it has turned into an internet addiction and making toddlers and children act out of the norm and disrespecting their parents and the people around them.
