People now days have an abundance of sources at their disposal for acquiring news, in particularly, television medium…
In “Arms and the Women,” Collins argues that, considering how far America has already come with equal rights as a whole, women should now have total equality to men in the military. Collins opens her column by looking back on the era when women were first allowed into the military- a time when letting them hold a gun was still out of the question. She then moves to a discussion of the current state of the issue; how much has changed, and the question of if more rights should be given. Collins closes her argument with a reflection of the positive effects of women in the military, and a hope to continue the movement of allowing women to participate in all combat.…
For the news assignment, I viewed the CBS Evening News with Scott Pelley.

Two female gymnasts come forward to Congress and plead their story about their coach in the Olympics sexually abusing them in their hotel rooms when they were just teens. The women are much older now, but still come forth with their mournful story.…
PBS Newshour is a public service program with daily updates on national, political, and foreign issues. Only on the weekends do they shorten their coverage to twenty-five minutes, to observe the possibility that people don’t want to eat a larger portion of their educational vegetables. Tuning in from my laptop at pbs.org to examine both one of these broadcasts, January twenty-second and the twenty-forth, I noticed certain aspects of an institutionalized quality that advocates to a more knowledge based demographic, though not as extreme as Sorkin’s example above. What does emerge are some placating ideologies of what is considered professional and authoritative, as if to advocate for an unaffected, fact-driven achievement that stand out as a…

When it comes to fast food, people do not normally look for healthy food, they look for a quick fix to their hunger on the go. Throughout the years fast food has served one main purpose, to have quick and tasty food to fit into their busy schedules. McDonalds is one of the largest growing fast food industries in the world, known for its one main purpose, to serve fast food not think about how much fat or calories is in each meal, so why should they start now? The opposing side may argue that they are feeding America, and therefore causing Americans to become over weight and obese due to the over abundance in calories, fats, and more in each meal that any one person can eat.…

I am happy to write you after reading your following article of the recent Minneapolis case ruling. The information you provided is exact, but I would like to share with you my concerns over the police shooting and the fact that the officers will not be charged. Officers in this field of criminal justice have been acting without any restraint against them. Not all officers are bad and act without restraint, but the ones that do are the ones that need to be charged with the same crimes others would in civilian clothing. In a article on The Washington Post, titled Thousands Dead, Few Prosecuted; a post analysis found that among the thousands of fatal shooting at the hands of police officers since 2005, only 54 officers have been charged. I think this should be a very different number given the death toll.…
Yellow Journalism the unbelievable headlines, gossip you hear from the "paparazzi," although you think it is just harmless gossip, it is everything but that, as a matter of fact it has caused wars amongst America and other countries. The term "yellow journalism" was originally coined to describe the journalistic practices of Joseph Pulitzer. Today, it is synonymous with the inflammatory editorials of William Randolph Hearst. In a classic example of "yellow journalism" Hearst responded to illustrator Frederic Remington's request to return from an assignment in a quiet Havana, "Please remain. You furnish the pictures and I'll furnish the war (Spanish-American War of 1898)." William Randolph Hearst (1863- 1951) was born in San Francisco, California, as the only child of George Hearst, a self-made multi-millionaire miner and rancher. In 1887, at age 23 he became proprietor of the San Francisco Examiner. Inspired by the journalism of Joseph Pulitzer, Hearst turned the newspaper into a combination of reformist investigative reporting and uninhibited sensationalism. He soon developed a reputation for employing the best journalists available. This included Stephen Crane, Mark Twain, and Jack London. He sensationalized journalism by the introduction of banner headlines and lavish illustrations. At his peak, he owned twenty-eight newspapers and eighteen magazines. Hearst upset the left-wing in America by being a pro-Nazi in the 1930s and a devout anti-communist in the 1940s. William Randolph Hearst hated minorities, and he used his chain of newspapers to aggravate racial tensions at every opportunity. Hearst especially hated Mexicans. His papers portrayed Mexicans as lazy, degenerate, and violent, and as marijuana smokers and job stealers. (Nasaw)…
Pulitzer was a man of many accomplishments and few failures. However, there was one failure in particular that especially came to light during his life, and this was his founding of the practice of yellow journalism. In 1883 he purchased the New York World for $346,000 from Jay Gould, and appointed himself the manager. With Pulitzer in charge, the World’s circulation grew from 15,000 to 600,000, making it the largest newspaper in the United States. Meanwhile Joseph’s brother, Albert Pulitzer, did not get along with him. Albert owned a rival newspaper called the New York Morning Journal, which later became the New York Journal (Wikipedia “Joseph Pulitzer”). Joseph’s New York World cost two cents a paper while Albert’s Morning Journal cost one cent a copy, yet Joseph’s paper earned considerably more than his brother’s.…
In societies like the American culture, rights should be for the individual people. However, the civil rights signify groups of people, which can cause labeling to occur. In his essays “Preface” and “The New Civil Rights,” Kenji Yoshino introduces the necessity for a change in the view of rights for the people. Due to the lack of rights that are specific to all persons, which are known as human rights, there are stereotypes imminent causing many people to cover. Covering means an action in which a person is hiding a characteristic that makes that person who he or she truly is (Yoshino 539). By covering, an individual can lose sight of his or her language, values, background, and culture. As presented…
