As a pluralist I believe we have a diverse range of media texts to choose from (print/radio/internet/TV) we choose whether we watch read or believe something…we are not forced.
How can we choose what we watch because there is elite who controls what we do…Rupert Murdoch owns TV stations newspapers and is able to influence our opinion
Whilst this is true it is necessary to consider the extent of their influence. Google owns all the blog’s but does it impose any restrictions on the material it can publish? No it seems that whilst there is a single figure of authority his/her influence is extremely limited. This allows the theory of pluralism to flourish
We cannot rely on Google how do we know that other institutions pay Google to put their sites first as we search everything is influenced.
?
I agree with the comment above can’t think of nothing
No but if we don’t feed the audience with the ideologies and issues who will? If the audience chooses what they believe then they might be choosing the wrong method they feed-we read.
No people can read and watch and make up their own minds up. If you are intelligent enough you will be able to figure out what is corrupt.
If this was a debate this would be absolutely pathetic the arguments in this are so weak….LOL sorry guys but we as a class could do so much better. Media terminology…hardly anything there the only people that used a few terms are nemo and vishna… (Omg I think I sound like a teacher) erm yeah so much terminology like media literate, conglomerates, false consciousness, hegemony, active, passive no one even used the words Marxist or pluralist.
Had no use of theorists gramsci adorno althusser etc. we have talked about these in lesson…we cant rely on 4 people from our class on our media debate… we need practice…Mr bush I think we should use our lessons more productively and you should make us debate because the arguments are quite weak. (Omg especially if nilz isn’t going to be there LOL) erm yeah ISA RSA hypodermic needle and uses and gratifications…and we need to stop saying I AGREE because in debates you don’t agree LOOOL okey dokey I think I’m done LOL
