The issue of bias is often seen throughout the mass communication world. Bias is prejudice in favor of or against a person‚ group‚ or a thing. It is usually considered to be unfair‚ but that depends on its contents. Most of our biases are unconscious‚ which is also known as implicit bias. This helps to explain why discrimination exists which is something we also see in the mass communication world. For example overweight job applicants are often viewed as less intelligent‚ and lazier.

Of such great powers or beings there may be conceivably a survival... a survival of a hugely remote period when... consciousness was manifested‚ perhaps‚ in shapes and forms long since withdrawn before the tide of advancing humanity... forms of which poetry and legend alone have caught a flying memory and called them gods‚ monsters‚ mythical beings of all sorts and

In the essay “In praise of margins‚” Ian Frazier explains the importance of having marginal activities. He describes these activities as something you do with no purpose‚ where you are free to let your mind run wild. Sometimes marginality is tangible in the sense you can actually create something while doing a marginal activity. Frazier’s marginal place as a child was eh woods. There he and his friends would pretend to be explores and try out odd ideas. Odd ideas that later they would come to realize

Types of volcanism associated with plate margins There are two types of plate margin. When there is a boundary between two diverging tectonic plates‚ such as between the North American and Eurasian plates‚ it is known as a constructive plate margin. This is because it recognises the importance of magma rising up from the mantle to create new crustal rock. The boundary between two converging plates is known as a destructive plate margin‚ as it is responsible for more violent seismic activity‚ volcanoes

At the beginning of the extract the Inspector says “She wasn’t very pretty ... very pretty.” In my opinion the Inspector says this to try and give the Birlings a ‘guilt trip’. Mr. Birling reacts by almost telling the Inspector off‚ as if he were a child‚ “That’s enough of that”‚ it sounds like something he would say to Sheila or Eric. The reason he says this is most probably because he feels that he is better and more important than the Inspector and that he can tell the Inspector what to do. The

I feel extremely responsible for the horrid tragedy of what had happened to that young lady. On the other hand at the time it took place I was in a furious temper; you see it didn’t seem so bad at the time because I lost all sense of what was right and let anger and jealousy fill me up to the direst spitefulness.

The Inspector had a huge effect on the whole Birling family‚ however I think the two characters that he had the biggest impact on were Sheila and Eric. Sheila starts out in the play as a very spoilt girl‚ and also seems rather shallow. Several things give us this impression in the first scene‚ for example her reaction to her engagement ring: “Oh Mummy – isn’t it a beauty?!” She also appears quite naive‚ despite her curiosity as to where her fiancé Gerald spent his summer last year. However‚ as soon
