News media Is the American news media being honest like it was to be back when our great nation begin? Many American’s don’t believe the media today because of the views that the media takes. The 2016 election year was one of the ugliest presidential elections in the history of the United States between Donald J. Trump and Hillary Clinton. The news media play a big role in the election as they bring the news to the public about Clinton and Trump. The media is has changed the delivery form the traditional

The recent decision of Great Britain to leave the European Union coincides with the recent election of Donald Trump to the presidency of the United States. Both events can be explained by using economic and cultural arguments. In order to fully understand these occurrences, one must understand the economic anxiety as well as the anti-globalisation sentiment that surrounded the Brexit movement. Trump’s candidacy involves some of the same aspects, yet Trump’s voter demographic, the white, working class

In addition to supporter shaming being abundant in daily face-to-face interactions, social media, such as Twitter and Facebook, become a breeding ground for supporter shaming. On Twitter, Kevin Allred, a professor at Rutgers University, wrote, “If you’re white & claiming being called racist for supporting Trump is a ‘bias incident,’ you 've lived the most privileged life ever! Ever!” The supporter shaming on social media, however, did not stop at the individual level; it grew to a systematic banning

Was it really the White working class that caused these problems? Or was it the companies that outsourced their jobs overseas? The white working class are also known as the “hillbillies.” They are people who have gone through a lot of suffering but also have made a lot problems on their own. While I definitely think that it is up to the former White working class to dig themselves out, I 'm unsure that they 're the ones responsible for this mess. Loosing their jobs to outsourcing and loosing their

Donald J. Trump’s tax returns, and his 3.7 billion net worth, was once the reason he was critiqued in the media. Once his political career commenced, the media satisfied the audience’s thirst to revise candidate Trump’s history of privilege and business skills (and how he got them), to such an extent that the election of 2016 was almost omnipresent. I reexamined the sociological aspects in Tremonti’s CBC session with David Cay Johnston. Johnston’s stance is that Trump is a no-good manager, and that

Persuasive opinion paper God hates fags, Thank god for dead soldiers, Thank god for Hurricane Katrina, Pretty harsh right? These are all common phrases publically protested by a church called the Westboro Baptist church. You would think such comments should be illegal to chant out in public considering that gay marriage is now legal in some states and also that soldiers are out fighting for us, however members of the Westboro Baptist church feel differently. Westboro Baptist church was established

The Trump Effect Donald Trump’s meteoric political rise during the Presidential Election of 2016 put attention on the media and the way they covered the election and will forever change both politics and media going forward. The media was shown to be a bias, ratting chasing, and corrupt extension of the political parties. We will encompass the entire campaign from the June 2015 announcement that he was running, covering the primaries, then to the convention, along the path of the general campaign

Today’s political climate is a polarizing topic. Every form of media has an opinion on it from major news outlets to adult animated sitcoms. Harry Frankfurt’s book “On Truth” is relevant to the political storm that is brewing in American society due to the manipulation of the truth by political figures and mainstream media. Frankfurt approaches the importance of truth in a unique fashion and vilifies lies and those who spread them. This directly relates to the election year and how the truth is

Jack Sovereign Mrs. Binion LA11, Period 1 October 2, 2017 “Despite the negative press covfefe” (Donald Trump). What does it mean? Who or what is covfefe? Why was this said? Was it an accident? With all the questions, it seems there was only thing everyone can agree on - it was a quite unique tweet. Donald Trump, much like his tweets, is the very definition of an outlier. With no political experience, this man rose in the polls and was able to become the president of the United States, beating out
