Hi class,
Unfortunately I don't see you guys today! Please see the work set below to help us stay on track for writing that power and the media essay tomorrow!
Wednesday - Power and the Media research
- make a note of the 6 media companies who own the hundreds of news outlets
- Find a quote in this article from Noam Chomsky and add it to your notes for your essay
- how have the ways the big corporations are engaging viewers in news media changed?
- make a note of who the owners of the media are (remember this is not your film studio 'Big 5', these are the conglomerates that own all the other media companies).
Thursday - Power and the Media
Look back on and consolidate your information on women represented in rap music videos as well as black people in film (that you worked on in Term 1) and write a couple of paragraphs about collective identity and how that group of society has been represented in the past, is represented now and how that balance of power has shifted.
You'll need to refer too, to the diversity report we did this term as well as 'women in Hollywood' articles I've given you, to write these paragraphs.
Friday - Power and the Media Essay Question - Due Friday afternoon
Using the 'Power in the Media' essay guide I gave you, write an essay answering the following question;
"To what extent do people today have the power to represent themselves?"
