Media distortions- Comm200

 200 -250 words

 

Every form of media shapes the style of communication. Take a single recent news story and find it in 

two different news media (internet blog, print newspaper, television news/video, radio). Identify the 

story and its sources (use APA format). Then briefly describe the differences in the way the story is 

reported: 

 What facts were different? 

 What opinions were different? 

 What emotions were different? 

Then in three to five paragraphs evaluate those differences. Are any of them due to intrinsic biases built 

into the medium? Could you get the same effect from other media? What changes would be necessary? 

How do you evaluate each media as a way of conveying news? Which do you trust most? Why?
