One time, I had a challenging encounter with my father when I corrected him for believing fake news he came across on social media. The post claimed that a political figure made controversial statements about a specific group, but I immediately recognized it as false and tried to explain that it was not true. Despite my attempts to clarify the situation, my father remained skeptical, and our relationship quickly became strained. We engaged in a heated argument, and he believed I was being naive.

Despite my best efforts to convince him, my father continued to dismiss my perspective, and our relationship suffered. It was only after several weeks that he discovered credible sources that refuted the story, and he realized that he had been misled by fake news. He apologized for not taking me seriously, and we reconciled. This experience taught me the value of media literacy and the importance of distinguishing between trustworthy news sources and fake news, especially as social media and technology continue to evolve. Furthermore, it revealed that it can be challenging to communicate effectively with parents, particularly regarding newer technologies and social media platforms.

Therefore, my intention is to employ my leadership role to promote advertising literacy and enable others to become astute consumers of advertising.

My plan is to increase people's awareness about the methods and tactics that advertisers utilize to influence our thoughts and actions. I will educate individuals on emotional appeals, persuasive language, and other techniques that advertisers use to create a profound effect. By doing so, I hope to assist people in comprehending how advertising affects them and equip them with the necessary skills to resist such influence.

Furthermore, I will encourage individuals to scrutinize the messages conveyed in advertisements critically. I will challenge people to ask questions such as "What is the advertiser attempting to sell?" and "What values or principles are being espoused in this advertisement?" By applying such critical thinking, individuals will become more aware of how advertising shapes their beliefs and become better equipped to make informed decisions.

Finally, I will use my own knowledge of advertising to enhance my leadership skills. As a leader, I am aware that I possess the power to influence the messaging and communication strategies utilized within my organization. By taking into account how advertising can impact people, I can ensure that my messaging is clear, truthful, and reflects my values. This will inspire others to do the same, and together we can create a more transparent and principled advertising environment.]]> 2023-05-07 16:12:04 UTC https://padlet.com/ensengbino/aboutme/wish/2580927816 My Role in Navigating the Legal and Ethical Considerations in Media and Information | Journal #5 ensengbino https://padlet.com/ensengbino/aboutme/wish/2580929680 As a student who often uploads stuff, I understand the importance of navigating the legal and ethical considerations in media and information.
