The 9th Media Monitor, either regular or bonus, can be posted here, with deadline on Wednesday 5pm.
The following are additional bonus topics that any class member can choose from in addition to the list of bonus topics already given, provided that no bonus theme or topic can be repeated; a “repeated” bonus theme/topic (the second “repeated”) will be considered a regular media monitor and not a bonus:
Additional bonus topics:
Bonus media monitor of any news, feature, explanatory, investigative, analysis, opinion-editorial of Facebook as primary purveyor of fake news (from mid-2017 to the current period), or of the privacy breach in a massive scale (87 million FB accounts) committed by Facebook (from the current period of the last two months).
Bonus media monitor: Your own movie review of any film you have seen in the last 30 days. The review should be original, the “reviewer” should have personally viewed the movie. In connection with the class topics, pls focus on the correctness or the appropriateness of the rating, using the content and based on the standards and illustration/examples discussed in class.
In reply to sprtan17:
if this (what you embedded under the congressional hearing post) is a media monitor, kindly embed it in the media monitor post the link for which had been given to all class members, in addition to being visible to all in giant font on the first page. This will not be recorded under the media monitor post. Second, if the ratings as discussed in class two weeks ago (as indicated in the instructions) is not applied, the score is zero. If this is a bonus media monitor on movie review (which requires a discussion of the ratings as discussed in class), the score is ZERO for the reasons stated here (not based on ratings as discussed in class two weeks ago, as stated in the instructions).
