Take a moment to think about the concepts we have discussed so far.
Next, open a Word doc, type your name on the paper, and answer the following questions:
1. What do you think the makers of this last YouTube video mean by the term Junk Media?
2. Over 25 years ago, Neil Postman predicted, "We will become, in a phrase, a people amused into stupidity."
Do you think the media we consume is amusing us into stupidity?
3. Why is understanding a media outlet's potential bias important?
4.How is the media treating President Obama? This is your opinion - just make sure you support your answer.
Turn these questions in when you are finished/by the end of class.
