Remember the newspaper? take a closer look

Like seriously, who reads newspaper. I most certainly don't. I personally don't like to read them because whatever is metioned in it I'm sure I can see it or catch it somewhere else; like on the news. I feel as though in this society now Newspaper is a waste. I Have a friend that purchase the newspaper because of the coupons. In the Baltimore Sun it provides coverage of local and reginal news, events, issues, etc. In each sections of the newspaper there is a particular audience  its targeting. For example Sports sections will be for the guys. Majority of the iformation provider is bias in the newspaper. I remember The Sun paper used to be $.50 now its a $1.00. I don't think newspaper will survive in this society anymore because there is other media that is taking its spot. People use the internet for their primary source of news and informations.

 My favorite section in the newspaper was the comics. I remember sitting at a table eating a bowl of cereal reading the funnies. Now if I see a newspaper I would probably only read the horescope section(entertainment). The writings in the newspaper seems to be very dry and boring. Its filled with a lot of ads. It changed a lot, newspaper isnt the same anymore. People do not staple the newspaper to their daily life anymore. Watching the news on tv or on the internet is very convience. Online news is less bias because you have so many more view pointsin reporting. I think the internet is a wonderful source for news. The internet has made it so easy that you can read more than you can buy.

Evaluate Magazines

While in line at a grocery store, I see myself staring at these magazines, wondering why everything have to be airbrushed. People should be natural. I feel as though these magazines are sending a negative message to our audience and I feel as though its not right and it should be limits to what to expose.

     In this one magazine, there was this young lady who had on a short skirt with coupons attached to it with big boobs busting out the shirt. In every magazines they are targeting a particular crowd. In this case this magazine was targeting the males. These images are not realistic, they are negative. The message to the female is that you have to look like this to be acceptable or acknowledge in this society. I think these magazines make it hard for men and women to be theirself because they are worrying about trying to impress the other. Most of the magazines are sex sell magazines and it most definitely do. A lot of guys are presented as this big muscular person, and most of the time they are advertise as working men, with nice care and great jobs. A lot of females are presented as housewives, secretary and caretaker. In some of the ads women are advertised as being sexy. I feel as though that these are stereotypes of what men and women do or should do. I do not look at magazines, I feel as though its all false. The reason why people purchase magazine because they find it fulfilling and interesting.
