Internet
To be honest, counting how much sites there are was a pain in the butt. So for now, I’ll guess that the list contained at least more than 100 sites?

Movies or Recordings
One of my favorite sound recoding of 2009 has to be Jay-Z’s new album single called, “Young Forever.” There’s other songs in the album that I like but that song in particular stood out out of all of them. The song talks about how either we should die young or live forever. It just gives an upbeat and soothing sound to the mind that it’s unexplainable. I listened to...

Media Impact

Especially, the infamous video game called Grand Theft Auto.  Which brings a good debate from both sides of the argument. I will be using the survey method in this project which I will be observing kids how that certain video game (GTA) or games that...

Media Autobiography
Most of us have grown up with the media since we were little toddlers.  Sometimes the headlines of the media maybe related to us close or maybe even distant. Sometimes it may only relate to the gossip world. In my opinion, the television/radio side of the Media relates in a way that I think they both bring mediated & point-to-multi-point communication to widespread audiences. I KNOW we all...
