UPDATE: The class is multimedia: You may include evaluation of reports, commentaries, posts, tweets, memes, in all kinds of media, on the President’s speech in Malacañang last night and the ensuing Q & A (i,e., all kinds of reports, commentaries, posts, tweets, memes , in all kinds of media including the social media on the President’s speech and the media conference). Two or more paragraphs — you can write in your own site/ platform/account and paste the link here, or write in the comments section here, or email your post to me either as a link or as embedded paragraphs: Pls do not use “postbox” in your email or any app that cannot be opened by anyone except yourself. The deadline is extended to 1pm today Jan. 29.
For ethics students C110: This is a continuation of this afternoon’s discussion. You may post the second bonus media monitor here for ten points as discussed a few minutes ago inside the classroom, with the discussion extended here. Pls examine how the Malacañang press corps followed thru the presidenital announcement with their questions, or how media organizations storified the presidential media conference with their news reports, i.e., news reports of the presidential announcement and the media conference. [you don’t have to evaluate the news subject (PNoy) — you can if you want to — but we will be looking at your evaluation of the news report or the news reporter.],
You may also email your evaluation instead of posting here. You can state whether the report/ reporting is a form of good practice (specify why), or a violation of media ethics (specify the pertinent provision), or involves an ethical dilemma (specify the principle of ethics involved) (fair, foolish, or in an ethical fix). Mere rants without substance will not be given any points.
You may use a pseudonym or your student number or your name. Deadline is up to the end of the morning news tomorrow at 10am. Those who cannot post for the bonus points may post a regular media monitor on any story in the media (any media: online, TV or radio, social media, newspapers, etc. ) for five points, with the same deadline at 10am tomorrow.
