Rock and roll is " a style of music popularized on radio that combined elements of white hillbilly music and Black rhythm and blues." This kind of music was what teens listen too and influenced them to rebel against their parents. Queen and ACDC were one of the many Rock n roll groups to create a strong fan base. RnR brought many cultural identities together, race didn't matter in music.

The Media Are Essential Components Of Our Lives:
I was so shocked to see how much technology has consumed and integrated itself into our lives. I can be related to checking all social media platforms before I even eat. I remember going to the JC and before class began everyone was informed about the current school shootings or how ICE was raiding homes. The teacher would come to class and let us know about it, but we knew before she did.

Publicity Model: Bad Bunny is one of the hottest artists as we speak. Recently he's gone under fire because a video went viral of him throwing a fans phone while she was trying to take a picture of him. While the internet was trying to cancel him, many were on his side ( hes a human too and needs his space) and his album sales kept sky rocketing and kept being #1 on Spotify.

I can tell when a website is fake. This video/article gave me much more insight to what to look out for. This one artist by the name of Baeza, was blasted on social media for being arrested for SA and CP. But the thing was it didn't come from a credible source, it came from a gossip page. I look for the writer's name and a news brand name .

Back in 2012, there was a fabricational lie about how the world was going to end. The Mayan calendar apparently ended in 2012. Also, a lot of people referenced the bible as a credible source. Conspiracy theorists believed that God was going to come back to earth and take his followers with him and unleash destruction on all humanity for all the corruption that is happening.

A lot of women experience online bullying nowadays. The famous latin singer Karol G faced criticism when she released her hit single SEJODIOTO. She sings about having sex with other men after a break up, also how she can seduce many men. She received a lot of negative comments on social media. But all she wanted to get through people's heads was that women can do anything men can. Why is it when men do something it's fine, but when a woman does it shes a slut?

" TV networks are losing viewers and advertisers at an alarming rate while
streaming services are hemorrhaging billions of dollars." Many tv providers have increased their prices and are no longer affordable to the typical suburban family. The economy has fallen and a lot of people have turned to streaming services. No contract no problem, it is convenient and you can cancel at any time. Streaming services also have increased their prices when they saw they had an influx of new customers. Streaming services gained a lot of customers, but are equally losing them due to disabled settings. For example, password sharing on more than one device.

Emojis are " small icons that are used to express ideas and emotions in SMS and social media messages." I use emojis every time I text with friends. Sometimes I respond with an emoji and the other person knows what I'm saying. Emojis are a form of expression people can't see through a glass screen. They add the extra spice to a text message or social media post.

In this chapter , it stated " Stephen King was required to cut 150,000 words, nearly half its length, from the original edition of The Stand to make it more marketable." Why does someone who writes their thoughts down to entertain others have to cut their ideas in half for money? People who love to read are going to decide if they want to read a long book. I don't think publishers should decide that the book is too long and needs to be cut in half. A lot of books I've read leave me wanting more. But maybe it was unintentional, the author probably wanted to give us more. But the publisher wouldn't allow it.

Our texted book stated that " daily papers contained shipping news and political essays. Colonial newspapers were quite expensive, costing as much as six cents a day at a time when a worker might make eighty-five cents a day. Papers were typically available only by annual subscription, which had to be paid in advance. " This reminded me of the brand Hermes. This brand makes luxury handbags for the elite . Bags can cost up to 300,000$. Only people who have spent over millions of dollars get access to these bags and have to be put on a waiting list.

Having mobile access to the internet was expensive back then, now it's everywhere you turn. Plus, the newspaper is a contributing factor to global warming.

People watch television to pass the time and to acquire knowledge or discover new skills. This knowledge frequently has socialization-related implications, such as how to behave like grownups, how to improve as an athlete, and how other people live.

In 1894, Auguste-Marie and Louis-Jean Lumière, brothers from France, began utilizing Edison's ideas for motion pictures. They developed a portable movie camera they called a cinématographe that could also be used as a projector. The brothers also established the requirements for the format and the pace at which movies would be shot, which Edison eventually adopted. They opened their first theater on December 28, 1895, and ran short films depicting normal life in families, workplaces, and the streets. Back then there was no script or hollywood lights/movie sets. The very first movie that had some structure to it was " The Great Train Robbery." Movies went from being twenty fives minutes long to three hours long. From no sound, to having sound effects for everything you could think of.

activities, a funny thing happened in the
entertainment business: The drive-in theater saved the cinema. " Covid took out a lot of businesses, many of us remember going to these businesses as kids. Drive in theaters were very popular back in the day, but as technology progressed. They slowly started disappearing from towns. Only certain towns kept their drive-in open and they happened to sky rocket in sales when the pandemic hit. Hollywood stayed in business because of this plus online streaming as well.

The internet is described as a mass medium unlike any other, fusing interpersonal, group, and mass communications, it is a diverse set of independent networks, interlinked to give its users the appearance of a single, uniform network. We use the internet every second of our lives, whether it's to send an email or facetime to your loved ones. An article once stated that " The Gen Z check their phones before even eating breakfast."

Nowadays everything you see, receive, and send will cost you data. Data is basically tokens you have in order to use the internet. Once those tokens are done you can no longer use the internet. You can add more " tokens" by contacting your provider, but it comes with a price. Every app we use on a daily basis consumes data and or wifi gbs. When you connect to the internet you don't use your personal data. But, that does expose you to unknown servers that can hack you. Back in the old days, the internet was not free at cafes or restaurants. Having convenient access to the internet equals foot traffic to your business.

I have never heard of " niche internet micro
celebrity" until I read this article. I find it so strange that these people like the attention ( from a small amount of followers) , but not the money that they can potentially make from sponsors. A lot of big social media influencers are making six figures doing what niche internet micro celebrities are doing. I think the only difference is that nimc do social media for fun and because they love sharing their life with the world with no matter to monetary value.

Celebrities are frequently used in advertising to communicate their message. Advertisers have discovered that having a well-known personality support a product increase sales. Influencers were born off social marketing, they make a lot of money off doing everyday things. The textbook informed us that " In order to appear at the top of all sponsored posts, Instagram established a standard "Paid partnership" label in 2017. It not only provides audience members with more details, but it also grants the paid sponsor access to the influencer's reach and engagement statistics for the post." It's possible that the FTC may introduce new rules that call for social media influencers to disclose when they get compensation for endorsing goods. Some paid partnerships don't allow negative reviews, so this misleads consumers to believe the influencer actually likes the product.

The Clinton-Lewinsky controversy was a sexual scandal between Monica Lewinsky, a White House intern, and Bill Clinton, the president of the United States. When Clinton was 49 and Lewinsky was 22, their sexual relationship started in 1995. In 1997, it came to an end after 18 months. The white house was not ready for the DNA proof Monica had up against Bill. This caused negative publicity and ultimately led to his impeachment.

Small media is described in the book as " Alternative media, such as fax machines, photocopiers, video cameras, and personal websites, which are used to distribute news and information that might be suppressed by the government if published through traditional mass media channels." Many topics that are talked about on the news are controlled by the government. The government hides a lot of things from the world. This is why a lot of people set us blogs or YouTube channels to voice the truth and their option . I remember that a journalist snuck into the Bohemian Grove in Guerneville and recorded/published everything that was happening behind closed doors. The government nor do news Chanels ever talk about this place.

The First Amendment (Amendment I) of the US Constitution forbids the government from enacting laws that restrict the free exercise of religion, regulate the establishment of religion, or restrict speech, the press, assembly rights, or the right to petition the government for redress of grievances. It became one of the ten amendments that make up the Bill of Rights on December 15, 1791. This law really helped out in the #BlackLivesmatter and #MeToo movement. A lot of people are scared to speak out because of bad publicity or silly because they are scared. We should not hide because it is in our right to speak out. Even though we have right of speech, there is a twist to it.   President John Adams signed, the Alien and Sedition Acts. These laws punished anyone who published “false, scandalous, or malicious writings against the government of the United States, or either house of the Congress of the United States, or the President of the United States” with substantial fines, jail time, or deportation."

China to say the least isn't the nicest country to their inhabitants. According to he article, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) employs a variety of strategies, including the widespread dissemination of state-produced content, intimidation and harassment of local media outlets, targeted disinformation campaigns, cyberbullying, and the use of fictitious social media profiles. As stated by Freedom House, its major objective is to persuade the public to support it, sometimes in order to secure its investments in the target countries. This is almost like a cat and mouse game, but instead of the cat chasing the mouse. The cat waits patiently and sets a trap so the mouse will fall for it. Without the cat getting it's hands dirty.
