Media Paper - American Government

Using news resources, your own views, and those concepts concerning the media as outlined by the text and lectures, show how public opinion has been affected by the media coverage of a current event.  I am looking for you to draw a connection between these parts. 

The papers should be formatted in MLA style.  This means that the paper margins are set at 1 inch on all sides.  The font type is either Times New Roman or Arial, 12 point size and it is double spaced.  When citing outside sources, you must have parenthetical references within the body of the paper and a Works Cited page at the end.

Take your time and put some thought into this (it's worth 10% of your grade).  Be sure to answer all of the questions asked and include examples where applicable.  Submit your assignment here as an attachment.
