Seeing Behind the Smoke Screen 2

Abstract
Bias this is the downfall that we face as people. As is seems everyone has the own agenda but clearly the smoke is not easy to blow past as we think. We have to give the logic to the misunderstanding of share or given information.

Seeing Behind the Smoke Screen 3

Introduction
In the media now there is more bias then good information sharing. Many things that have come about are more bashing then informing. If we stand up and force more responsibility on those who publish this information it just might take a new spin for the better,

When asked how we might create creativity to problems that are present it might be simple. Breaking things down from major issues first. By doing this all of the disruption and confusion may start to diminish. Addressing the problem at the highest level will lead no room for questions. After taking it from the top then we can focus on responslability taken ownership for the work that you share. Not saying that we are looking to stop the in-depth research or writing but give the whole story with the truth. Creativity is not putting the media in a box but given the rules and making people understand the importance of equality. Change people perspective will not be easy but really it is worth the try. Not many people if they feel something is right will look at it from a different angle but this is needed when putting information that may change a person life.

If we do show the different approach to sharing information and given people the opportunity to see it from both side this may increase some curiosity. When people start to take an interest then then breaking down the problems will not be that hard. Catching people eyes is not that easy when we talk about stopping bias opinions. It is taught that we all have our

    Instead of saying, “We have unconfirmed reports that—This just in! We now have confirmed reports that those unconfirmed reports have been denied. No, wait! There’s a new report denying the confirmation of the denial of the unconfirmed report.” and giving viewers whiplash, they suggest that the reporters simply wait until a story is confirmed before reporting it and do commentary in the meantime. The content of news has an advantage and disadvantage. The circumstances they portray tend to be one sided. Some people prefer reading a newspaper because there information can be more accurate. I don’t feel like the media is actually helping us. I think it scares us more than anything because all the bad that goes on. It helps them get an audience while we are being talked…

When using critical thinking skills it helps us to understand better and be clear on information given to us, thus keeping us from being manipulated or deceived by the media. Whatever you read you should apply critical thinking skills asking yourself, “What is the author’s intention?

    More people listen to respond rather than to understand, identifying the words and context rather than empathizing with them, is the main cause of miscommunication. Since children we have been raised with ideals and opinions that shape our views or outlook`s on society, which can lead to being closed minded. When someone offers an opinion that contradicts our own values, it becomes hard to except those views as the “correct way”. Having an open mind when it comes to…

    Whether it’s the Internet, the worldwide news and celebrity news, bias is everywhere. The media gives out information to make everyone think the same thing and tell the public what they want them to hear. The media allows us to know what they believe is right about topics and situations. They have more information then what they actually give out. They give out what they want us to believe, focusing more on one topic that they favorite and giving us their opinion while other news sources might have a different one. People tend to believe what's on the news simply because it is on the news and they rely on them to tell the public what going on around them and expect it to be the truth, when in reality that might just be part of the story of that specific news source and their opinion, while other sources have a different one. Checking other sources before taking anyone's word to see if they all have the same side of the story is the best way to avoid media bias. Reasons why the media might not be telling people the real side of the story and telling the public what they believe is because they don't want to make anyone associated with them look bad. People can't make the right decisions if they don't know what's really going on. Journalism has to report what was said in an interview without adding or filtering their own opinion, but in news reporting it can be completely opposite and is rare to find a source…

    Denounce Bias In The Media

    “A Billion Cases of Rape Occur Each Day!” Imagine a news headline with that as the title. The initial absurdity of this claim would soon enough result in a deafening outcry by the public with fear and fury running rampant. Currently, the media has such a powerful influence on the public that with a single line of text the nation could be sent into anarchy. With no means to slow the speed at which the media can spread information, fraudulent news can quickly influence the public. A similar scenario is possible if the media neglects to pursue objectivity and denounce bias. Therefore, the media is in fact a problem in modern society and should be expected to strive to be as objective as possible in order to halt its influence on bad policy making,…

    The media controls the way the public views a controversial event. It can create the illusion that everything is perfect by leaving out important information, or can reveal the deplorable truth as the media did during the Civil Rights Movement. It was not always that way though, during the Colonial Era the media glossed over the brutality African Americans faced. It was not until the photography and recorders were invented that the media could really no longer deny the awful reality of the African Americans’ lives. With the Civil Rights Movement as an example, the media has evolved into a more reliable source. As history goes on, African Americans are being reported on more truthfully; the media has evolved into a more objective source containing more factual information.…

    I had the impression that Mr. Mwano would be speaking the entire time. Instead, he involved the audience to create a public forum. We began by discussing some sources of bias.
