When thinking about media, I care quite a bit about all issues pertaining to “new media.” It is easy to be updated in the news today with platforms such as Twitter and Facebook. With that being said, I am very interested in the various cultures and ways of writing that is seen on media platforms. I would say that I am curious about politics and would like to learn more about the media and writing tactics. I feel as if this is something that I should keep tabs on. As a journalism major, I am aware of “fake news,” and the work of online media organizations so this class should be interesting for me. Media is a very powerful aspect in our lives so learning more about it is essential to navigating and sorting it out.
