Essays on News

It is hard to argue that media play an important role in the modern society and in life of every individual. Essentially, they are an irreplaceable part of it. Most of the people always watch and read news every day, a habit that strengthened with emergence of the Internet, mobile devices like smartphones and tablets, and social media altogether. Media practically became hands-on, available when, where and how you want it – on T.V., in a paper or electronic magazine or newspaper, or on Facebook. Getting the latest news nearly in the blink of an eye is par for the

Why are newspapers not important in the 21st century?

Newspapers are the only source of information for all classes of people in our
Society. As we know newspapers first appeared in Europe in the 17th century they had an
evolution slowly and gradually from a similar type of publication to a single sheet of
paper that would respond to events which were unusual. Although newspapers currently
and those in the past were similar in many ways, newspapers and their content have
changed over time. The decline of sales in newspapers has been widely due to
ever increasing newsprint prices, decreasing advertisements sales, the loss of putting classified

Writing a Story and The Four News Models

In Chapter 4, Freedman has shown us the different ways of writing a story. Among the various methods given, the most important one is learning how to manipulate the timeline. Simply changing or moving a couple of shots or sound bites and/or just adding an element can quickly put a new spin on a story. Indeed, manipulating the timeline could be regarded as the most effective way of making little but valuable alterations in the storyline. This method could even lead one to discovering the best version of the story. One

Personal Statement – Broadcast News Program

Ever since I was young, I have been fascinated by broadcast news. As a child, I would sit down with my parents every night at dinner and watch the people in the “box” cover everything going on the world. While I knew I didn’t understand much of it at the time, I felt like I was witnessing something important, and learning about what was going on in the world. As I got older, I learned more about what it meant to be a broadcast journalist, and began to understand the hard work and dedication that goes into making

There is nothing called objective viewpoint. Media which plays a big role in giving information on the world often is accused of showing bias towards a particular ideology or a particular social group or a particular party. Though a journalist tries to be objective in his viewpoint by following two methods, 1) showing fairness to those associated with the news and 2) a professional approach to gathering information that seeks completeness, accuracy and fairness, he often fails to reach the ethical heights just like anyone involved in the profession of politics (The Rhetorica Network). Since reporting of news is

Composition 201
Gaining New Ideas from “Working the Fringes”
According to Brent Cunningham in his article, "Working the Fringes," "working the fringes isn't about advocacy but ideas" (Cunningham 2). Cunningham argues further that "working the fringes" or covering stories which are not primarily the focus of mainstream media helps to generate new ideas in response to dealing the various problems which are posed in the twenty-first century. Although this might be true to an extent, I wonder whether or not "working the fringes" will be effective in gaining the attention of a mainstream audience and

William Faulkner once said that “the human heart in conflict with itself” is the only subject that is truly worth writing about. There are many authors who have applied this advice to their characters throughout literature. From the complicated Nineteen Eighty-Four’s Winston Smith to the simplistic Sam I Am’s Sam, there are too many characters to name who spend the pages of their novel feeling in conflict with their own hearts. Two more examples of such characters are Bernard Marx, from Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World and Louise from Kate Chopin’s The Story of an

Life can be difficult in many of its stages. It seems though, that across the board, in both fiction and non-fiction, it is this time of coming of age that everything seems to take on an increased level of intensity. This is probably because many new things are not only being experienced at once, but they are all being experienced for the first time. Warrant Glen, by William Wallis, is an account of friendship during high school, in a school setting where there is violence happening within one’s surroundings, and also on the national stage. The novel’s

When looking at the pattern of actions and business approaches that define a company’s strategy it is clear that some do not apply to social media sites such as Facebook. One of these sectors are the actions to gain sales and market share with lower prices based on lower costs because there are not many ways a social media site can see substantial savings by lower costs.
Actions to enter new product or geographic markets or to exit existing ones is an approach that Facebook is poising itself to take advantage of with its new Trending option. By

Question 1: Is technology the job killer of the 21st century?
Increased intelligent machinery, automation, and a reliance on web-based services has caused a reduction in several types of jobs, but it has also created millions of jobs only not for the people who initially lost them.

Every 6 out of 10 people responded, "Not very confident" or "not sure." Is this distrust justified?
Many journalists and the companies, in which they work, have committed themselves to providing accurate, informative evidence. Yet there is cause for concern. Consider the following aspects:

‘Antigone’ by Sophocles:
Analyzing the importance of Teiresias in Greek tragedy
Greek Literature speaks of ‘Antigone’ as the tragic play, which was written by Sophocles during 441 B.C. Some of the literary experts are of the view that the original manuscript belonged to years much before 441 B.C.; however, the lack of evidence certifying the earlier dates suggest the former as the age of this storyline (Leach).
This play is an important asset that World Literature preserves with care, and serves as the source for many important inferences that can be drawn from each event that takes place in
