Technology and Media have become part of our day to day lives. How do you feel about this? Is it a positive thing? Negative thing? How would your life be different without technology and media?
I feel like anything, technology and media have their positives and negatives. Take texting and Facebook for instances—because I use those the most. It’s awesome being able to connect with people all over the world at any time of the day, but I wonder if it takes away from our face to face conversations. Like what do we lose by relying on Facebook and texting? At times I think about deleting my Facebook, but than I would never know anything that goes on at GW and I would lose touch with my friends that I don’t see on a regular basis.
Do you think media is biased? How so?
Nothing can ever truly be unbiased, especially when dealing with forms of communication because you as the speaker or the writer always has to choose the words to say and so your words can bring about biasness. Also, people’s interpretation of what has been said can create biasness. You can say the simplest thing and someone will find bias in it. So yes, I would say technology and media is biased. But in regards to the fact that all things are biased to a certain degree.
