Analyzing a media segment

 

 

 

 

 

Select one of the following categories to use for this assignment:

Business
Politics
Popular culture
Research your topic, and, within the context of this topic area…

Identify a particular segment of the media (such as newspapers, magazines, radio, TV, internet, motion pictures) and discuss how it has developed in recent years and how it influences decision-making in our society.
Discuss an issue of controversy surrounding this media and what you think will happen in the future.
(For example, if you select the business category and the internet, you may decide to focus on cyber security issues and the threats they pose for businesses and consumers. If you select politics and social media, you may decide to focus on how social media accounts controlled by people outside the United States played a role in influencing U.S. voters in the 2016 and 2020 Presidential elections. If you select magazines and popular culture, you may decide to focus on how magazines have been blamed for the erosion of formerly traditional values about marriage and family life.)
