Mass Communication and Culture by John Aldrich A. Cancino https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k en-us 2023-08-25 05:06:39 UTC 2025-12-03 16:36:43 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2673771383 It is demonstrated here that the mass media directs our attention to codes of acceptable behavior, which contain specific guidelines and expectations to teach people about appropriate behavior in our society. Certainty, mass media can help people create and sustain better relationships with others. The mass media has influenced over people in society and is capable of changing human behavior, lifestyle, moral thoughts, and consequences. We may all disagree with media-generated views, but we must acknowledge that these ideas are communicated and possibly accepted generally in our society.

The mass media makes us question where we fit in, and it develops feelings of connection with individuals we know and those we have never met. Mass media may help us by informing us of the connections we have with others. It occurs when two or more people interact and each individual feels appreciated, seen, and heard. However, mass media will assist us in better understanding ourselves. Sometimes we disconnect, but other times we are convinced to change ourselves due to realization and acceptance.

As an example, reports from "real life" give us information about people's identities, whereas fictional works like novels, movies, and TV shows may give us details about people's interests or hobbies. In daily life, the individual is surrounded by family, friends, and coworkers from a place of employment or education. However, some people are well-known, others have important positions, some make important judgments, and of course, businesses and corporations are in operation.

Moreover, it explores the various reasons behind why they are in this kind of field, the implications of being a sex worker, as well as contradicting opinions coming from a liberated and conservative individuals, and the way how some were being exploited because of the demands in the sex industry. So, this is one of the few examples of how the media raise awareness by opening up issues and providing notions of how properly address it according to the norms of the society.]]> 2023-08-26 17:25:22 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2673819023 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2673830668   A Maalaala Mo Kaya (MMK) episode featuring Hidilyn Diaz, the first ever Filipino gold medalist in the Olympics. This episode showcased Hidilyn's real life events including her struggles particularly her journey towards her Olympic success.

Some people may connect with this post but others may not. In social media, users get to share different stand, opinions and beliefs. Through this, people gain perspective of how and what it feels like to be in someone else's shoes. However, it is also because such opinions differ from one another that it causes them to divide or to have a feeling of disconnection because of the different values and belief system that they share. For example regarding to the image above, some may undestand his side but others may not, saying that they are not grateful enough for having a home and just being dramatic.]]> 2023-08-26 18:28:21 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2673835440 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2673989820 The screenshot I took is from the Facebook page named “Etiquette with Olga” and it is one of her videos where she demonstrated the etiquettes of using napkin at the end of a meal especially when at a restaurant. With mass media, we can gain knowledge of these information that are very useful for us to become decent citizens, and this have cost us nothing because we can watch her videos for free. Some media applications before are initially created for easier communication but as time passes by, it also updated to be able to provide extra help to its users such as giving additional information to the well-being of a person. With that being said, we can use this kind of video as a guide on how we should act accordingly while in public places.

I have Mr. Chris Punsalan as an example of a person who became famous because of mass media, specifically through the aid of Facebook and TikTok. He is the great grandson of the grandmother in the videos, and he would take care of her every single day, especially because grandma is already bedridden and cannot do simple living tasks anymore. Through mass media, he can share their routines and how he takes care and makes grandma feel loved every day. In addition, I believe that their Facebook page is worthy enough to get views and be well-known especially to the younger generations as they spread positivity.

And so, I believe that watching vlogs is also one of the ways on how we get to know some parts of the life of a certain person. With this, I have Ms. Ry Velasco’s vlogs in YouTube as an example on how I could better figure out the life I want for myself in the future. The small wins and achievements she is making for herself right now are the things that made such an impact to me. As a result of watching some of her videos, I can use it as my inspiration to work harder and smarter so that I could be an independent and financially stable woman in the future ]]> 2023-08-27 06:21:49 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2673993495 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2673993497 In my opinion, I see mass media as a major way to be able to inspire someone you may never know in person.

Letting social media control their lives, even if it's out of bounds. Even though mass media can help people form strong bonds even if they are not in the same place, it can also change someone's lifestyle, behavior, and thinking.

An example of this is TEAM PAYAMAN, who became famous on YouTube and other mass media. They're the team from which people are inspired to strive for better. Giving advice in business and spreading laughter and positivity in their field, inspiring other people to also try doing what they love.

You need to choose wisely who you will watch, follow, etc. In social media. Ms. Nicole Torres, a college student and vlogger, made me want to romanticize and enjoy my college life. Just like her, I want to see myself enjoying it while at the same time being active in school. Watching her made me feel excited to enter college life, even if there are struggles. I may want my life to be like hers, but I know I have my own story to make. Also, Ms. Alliana Dolina, a vlogger who I am inspired to be when I grow up. Her achievements, that gave me an impact to be a better student. A person who’s also romanticizing her life after her hard work in her college life.

The driver insisted that he pay 400 rupees even though they had agreed to 350 rupees.  It has a significant impact on everyone because by using mass media we can easily educate that it is still possible for you to get fraud in another country. Despite the fact that we haven't visited that location, we are more aware to their behavior because of the media.]]> 2023-08-27 09:03:48 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674035172 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674040580 In the world we live in, it is extremely tough to handle mental health issues. They use this social media account to spread awareness or to connect with people who have depression. Maybe it's simply a typical message for some people, but for someone with mental illness, it's a lot. That is how the media works.]]> 2023-08-27 09:20:55 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674040580 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674044996 There are lots of people who develop hoarding behaviors. The influence of social media is strong because there are people or organizations that are formed to help other people just like the Hoarders on A&E helps people to clean their place to be like before. Additionally, they encouraged everyone that it was still possible to make changes.]]> 2023-08-27 09:33:45 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674044996 iseqio https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674072289 In the image above, it is seen that the crowd carries the same mask for everyone. It can be incorporated with the mass media and how it directs us to a specific margin of acceptable behaviors and to conform with the prevailing societal norms. It imprints the guidelines of what is deemed acceptable and condemnable for the society today. It has influenced us by affecting even the minor actions that we do such as picking an outfit or getting a tattoo. It has affected our lifestyles especially on how we speak about situations which sometimes, if not, most of the time, causes discussions.]]> 2023-08-27 10:59:48 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674072289 iseqio https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674073002 I would link this episode of Spongebob to how the mass media has helped in terms of inclusivity and differences. When Spongebob suddenly got rich and famous for his money, he purposely ignored Patrick for he doesn't deem him any value to him especially now that he has rich friends. Like mass media, although it promotes inclusivity through widespread information, it also creates a barrier for those in the lower class. Because of poverty, these people then tend to miss out on important news and knowledge that somehow separates their world from ours— who has the privilege to stay up to date.]]> 2023-08-27 11:01:50 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674073002 iseqio https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674073589 With how we consume media, it tends to have both positive and negative attributes. With the greater impact that mass media has, it has the power to help us understand ourselves and others better. These videos, for example, creates an impact on those who are personally struggling and can only rely on themselves to be better. These could be seen as self-help videos that we can use to improve our in-depth connection with ourselves and others.]]> 2023-08-27 11:03:24 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674073589 Cancel Culture https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674136770 Mass media and how it affects the mass's perceptions and values is not old news to most of us. One example showcasing this is the ever-so-popular cancel culture that has been around for a while now. The general definition or way of describing what cancel culture refers to the way a celebrity, influencer, or anyone that uses the internet to interact, comment, or post can get widespread hate or backlash from the users of a platform due to a questionable thing that they have done or posted in the internet or real life. This specific culture has honed the way public figures and netizens use their selected platform and what they share on it. Several artists limit how they speak and even monitor the netizens' reactions to their remarks and adjust their behavior to become acceptable, which showcases that mass media redirects how society views certain behaviors and how they perceive and define them - whether it's cancellable or not.]]> 2023-08-27 13:57:32 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674136770 Lifestyle vlogs https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674141805 Mass media has always been an influential force in the modern society. Certain videos like these show the normal day-to-day routine of the YouTuber or channel owner. Although it may seem like a normal video or documentation of a person's life, this can affect how people view their daily shenanigans and what they should achieve or do to become, maybe, a better person or a person they desire to become. Several videos like these may suggest certain activities that should be done in a day to be deemed 'productive' for example, the girl in the video chooses an outfit for her classes which may suggest that it is important to look presentable in class or to wear makeup to school. It may propose a certain standard for some people and this may cause them to see something as a necessity. This shows that mass media do suggest and propose things that should and should not matter in the user's daily life, no matter how small it is. ]]> 2023-08-27 14:08:50 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674141805 Documentaries https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674146432 Mass media is a platform where everyone is free to share, react, and comment about different things. With this in mind, mass media can help us understand ourselves and others and how we are connected or disconnected from them. In this example, I used a documentary by Kara David, which showcased the impact of poverty on children and how they perceive life because of it. Documentaries and other content similar to this can help the viewers see their perspective, as well as how they think about or see the people featured in the video, and what they can and cannot do to address this matter. For example, with this content, a person may realize that they want to become a hero for these children and help them, they may also see how they are connected like the both of them being Filipinos, and how they can and should help since they are born in the same country or nation, or maybe how they are living in a different world from them, which makes them irrelevant to the viewer. Mass media can help us discover more about ourselves and others at the same time, which makes it a driving force of how society perceives the world they live in and their connection to those around them. ]]> 2023-08-27 14:18:57 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674146432 The Pandemic https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674438247 One of the most significant debates during the pandemic was about the vaccine roll-out in the Philippines. The majority agree with the vaccine roll-out, as they see this as the only way to go back to normal, and because of the emerging technologies and studies in science, vaccines are made fast; on the other hand, the minority oppose the vaccines as they believe that it's made with a rush and the other disinformation towards vaccine instill in their minds. The media played a significant role in this debate, as the media is biased, wherein they side with the effectiveness of vaccines to achieve our common goal — going back to normal. The media battled the disinformation about vaccines and ensured that it is safe for the public as they are made with extensive studies, and it is the only way (and other health precautionary measures) for us to go back to normal we all want. Also, the media enforced acceptable behaviors (physical distancing, washing hands frequently, avoiding unnecessary travel, etc.) during the pandemic. We achieved the target immunization with the media's influence and are already back to normal.

When it comes to the candidates I support, I do more extensive research and focus on their notable works and platforms so they can appeal significantly better to the eye of the public. On the other hand, with the candidates I oppose, I focus more on the issues they participate in so the people would see these candidates as underserving of the position they are running. These biases in media create an image of the candidates as whether they belong or not in our political bets.

Although safe sex is being normalized these days, there will always be few people who seem so distant by the thought of its significance. Even sex education is still an issue in our country. The buying of condoms is an issue whereas they feel "awkward" upon purchasing it. Another one is the censoring of words which often implies both genitalia of male and female which results in having maliciousness in thought by the child. So the questions are, how can we practice and provide enlightenment about safe sex if the people aren't ready to be enlightened? We sure are conservative when it comes to this topic but up to what extent? Both ignorance and maliciousness of the people are the hindrances towards the prosperity of our stand.

I’ve met a lot of people who put pleasure over safety. I’m one of the individual who is all for sex education. Get yourself tested regularly and start looking for ourselves and the people we are having sex with because none of us can foretell, that you might be the next HIV positive or the person you are with.

Society has a categorized code of acceptable behavior based on the social norms that they grew up with.
One could find something acceptable during their time but the rest might find it absurd to take part in the modern dilemma. I selected this material to represent the given phenomenon and give emphasis on how mass media direct people's attention towards a code of acceptable behavior.

"Ang buhay ng iskwarter"

We all know that Lloyd Cadena passed away due to cardiac arrest. But I still watching his old vlogs because I'm a fan of him since 2016. More than the pink-walled memes and the wit and pun he showcased through his vlogs, 
26-year old YouTuber Lloyd Cadena’s legacy included extending hands to people in need.His videos inspires me a lot. Many influencers promote unrealistic body standards, which can contribute to body dissatisfaction and eating disorders among their followers but Lloyd is not   a just typical vlogger but influencer who genuinely cared for the poor.  He will be remembered as a generous, kind, loving & humble human being.

NGOs particularly 'ANGAT BUHAY' really break the ice walls in public service. Mass media played a vital role in promoting and decluttering some insights and here it extends the direction of 'What do we really need as Filipinos?'. This underlines the essentials and the counterbalance of decision-making and electing powers; people are still responsible for their actions. Mass media reports that NGOs are making a progressive movement compared to people in power. This is not a free promo for NGOs but a point of an understatement that behind the impact of mass media towards what and who it counts for its world are the people who control and believe in it.]]> 2023-08-28 09:45:50 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674957250 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674961170 Mass Media allows people to focus on the correct use of ethical behavior that can be applied towards establishing  codes of acceptable acts within society. That is exemplified by this twitter tweet from @inspidior_ who tweeted about those people who still stan social media personality Jeffree Star despite her racist and bullying remarks against different people.

The documentary program  'i Witness' is a documentary airing on GMA Network hosted by well-known journalists of GMA. This program elaborates on how connected and disconnected we are to society. We are a part of society but limited to the knowledge of what is happening. Of course, while watching documentaries you'll find yourself showing empathy towards the people who became the victims of incompetence and corruption. You became connected because of realization and this will call your attention to take action. The social predicament will take a step-by-step process within you to comprehend and think about the existential facts of why we are not doing anything. This might take a long night to explain, but this figure will let you know that you are part of the society yet unfastened to understand its pattern to be more satisfactory.]]> 2023-08-28 10:03:50 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674968735 FAKE NEWS! https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2674968880 For the 1st Concept, I chose this news that is posted by News5, as it shows the prevalent crisis the mass media has against fake news. The post conveys how mass delivery of information could affect people's way of thinking and point of view. 
We could even see here the particular product/effect of that when it comes to politics.

Especially when it comes to what is trending, what's in, and what they might be missing out on. 
Whether it'd be through making trends on social media, or getting attention through mainstream TV.
Its power to call for help for those in need through their featured stories, are also evident accomplisments/power of the Mass Media . Thus, a great example to explain this 2nd concept.

Or at least to some extent, the stories here serve as a wake-up call that perhaps we had been too self-absorbed and closed-minded that we became too disconnected from other people.
And as we watch it, the story unfolds as if we are with these documentarists, who prompts us to try to understand the people that seem to live in a world that is different, even unimaginable to us. Thus, opening our minds and hearts, in one way or another.

They apparently created a course in which the 104-year-old legend will share all of her rituals, equipment, and techniques for creating traditional tattoos. However, Apo Whang-Od’s great niece said that her grandmother did not agree nor sign any contract about the Nas Academy.

Her great niece wrote on Facebook "WARNING!!! Whang Od Academy is a scam. My grandmother did not sign any contract with @NasDaily to do any academy. Some people are taking advantage of our culture. PLEASE HELP US STOP this disrespect to the legacy of Apo Whang Od and the Butbot Tribe," 

It’s a very long issue, but this just shows how mass media can make us aware that kind of behavior is not acceptable.

Media produces role models and cautionary examples through the depiction of people and settings, reinforcing preexisting social norms. For example: The use of “blaccent” in movies and TV shows. It is the use of African American English by non-African American people. One of the most famous celebrities that uses this is Nora Lum, or more known as, Awkwafina. She uses this accent on multiple occasions even before the boom of her career in acting. We must draw attention to these problems to better understand the negative effects of it and the normalization of it. ]]> 2023-08-28 12:05:42 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2675051396 Who To Believe? cruzap3 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2675052812 Mass media decide what and who counts in their world by selecting, framing, and presenting stories and information that align with their editorial priorities and values. Additionally, it's the portrayal of specific people and issues that shape public beliefs of significance and relevance, contributing to the construction of a shared cultural narrative. Example of this is the democratic and republican news outlets in the states, as seen in the picture above. Where whatever they present on their respective media outlets only attract the people who have the same political beliefs as them. ]]> 2023-08-28 12:07:30 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2675052812 Representation Who? cruzap3 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2675054094 Mass media aid individuals in understanding themselves by providing relatable content and diverse representations that allow them to identify with characters and situations. This fosters a sense of belonging and validation, helping people recognize commonalities with others. The live version of The Little Mermaid that was published this year is an example of this. That movie has generated a great deal of debate.

This is a narrative pushed because men have for so long been told that you can't cry, you can't show emotion, or you can't have feelings. This positive affirmation, however, through the use of mass media, reminds us that this thing is acceptable and that it shouldn't have this stigma around it.

This primarily shows through this idea that men aren't loved unconditionally, that men don't have value in their worlds, and that a man only becomes valuable if he provides. Saying as well as that, no matter what, no matter why, children, women, and pets will always have value and will always be significant to their society, while men would not. This is possibly a result of the abundance of women's narratives trying to push the idea that women can do it (not saying they cannot), but actually not saying it, but more so saying that men are worthless. This is even more disheartening when we see that a man says it because it shows that men are not blind but more so powerless to the unfair standards that have become so so put upon them.]]> 2023-08-28 13:50:51 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2675173203 Reddit rdzion06 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2675174938 Reddit is a great example of how mass media truly connects us because it allows us to have a connection with those people who have similar interests as us, which would help us gain knowledge and truly understand ourselves. It also provides us with a possible escape to a different world that we envision and want it to be, thus possibly enabling a less connected mind to the reality of the world. That being said, it does give that connection without falling behind on necessary stuff, whilst allowing us to connect with those similar to us and giving us that small sense of enjoyment and peace, maybe even for just a little bit (although sadly, just like with any social media, not always the case).]]> 2023-08-28 13:52:04 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2675174938 Consent should always be asked. https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2675243780 We can see in the post of UN women how mass media directs and influences people on what is acceptable behavior in society.

According to the article, the traffic enforcer did not give any violation to the SUV because the driver or owner is a VIP which is a common example of codes of accepted behavior within the society. Government officials or high profile people were treated VIP because of their power and position and this gives them an excuse to break a law which should not be tolerated but commonly practiced by the people with power.

Therefore, there are times that we might we performing certain actions which we are unaware that could harm or offend certain people. An example of this is the N-word, which is a derogatory word used on black people. Although it can be understandable that us Filipino are unaware of it, it is essential to recognize that using it is still inappropriate. That is what the person in the picture would like to convey. Through posting it on social media, she managed to enlighten thousands of individuals who lacked information about the matter, while also calling out those who were using it actively. This I believe, depicts how mass media can direct us on performing the right behavior and helping us on becoming decent citizens.

You will see that even their parents were very supportive of their children. Most especially the teachers who will do anything and exert so many efforts just to help their students. They did not only teach them academically but also molds their values and attitudes and become who at what they are in the future. 

This documentary is an eye opener on what and who we want to be and gives us a different perspective in life. ]]> 2023-08-28 14:53:40 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2675259850 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2675263647
This is one of the best example of how mass media help people understand themselves and connect with others. 

We live in this generation where we don't have a choice but to be the bread and butter of our family.  

This kind of post on social media usually gets a lot of engagement because people especially the eldest son or daughter understand the feeling of how hard it is to be a bread winner. 

In the comment section, you'll read all of the people cheering up each other and connecting with different stories while encouraging them to disconnect to people who give them a hard time.

In that post, they give breadwinners the courage to strive hard and the moral support they need.

Most people may relate to this situation because of the difficult situation in life but we can get through this.

The channel, Jubilee, gathers people with diverse viewpoints and poses questions to them. In this particular segment, which is called "spectrum", people are tasked to choose if they agree, or disagree on the statement. When you view this type of content, you get to see different perspectives on particular issues, and you can feel connected to the people with whom you share values, and disconnected from the individuals with whom you disagree. This allows you to know more about yourself, like what kind of person are you, as well as your moral compass. This, in my perspective, is an excellent example of how mass media can facilitate a deeper self-awareness and reveal the ways in which our connections and disconnections with others manifest.

They don't just stop there – they actually guide us on what's okay and not okay. Think about how they present topics like manners, ethics, and cultural norms.

One of these is the empowering movement of Frankie "kakie" Pangilinan, "#Hijaako", that drives people's attention as it covers women's rights and the inflating rate of raped victims. 

Here, Kakie shot back on a post by a police officer from Quezon province that states females should not wear short clothes as this will only invite male sexual intent. Kakie responded to a tweet, saying that it is not women or female ways of dressing that should be blamed for a sexual harassment situation; instead, it is how the mindset of men works, in which they perceive revealing clothes as an invitation or opportunity to sexually assault females. Later on, Ben Tulfo, a Filipino radio personality, tweeted back Kakie Pangilinan and mockingly called her 'Hija', pointing out that "boys will be boys", validating such men's behavior. This has been the very example of codes of accepted behavior within society in which men's high sex drive is treated as an accepted and incurable and it will always be the female's fault for being the victim of such men's behavior. Subsequently, the #HijaAko Movement was established, wherein people who support it want the public to stop victim blaming and to have open eyes to the fact that men are the ones who need to take responsibility for their own behavior. ]]> 2023-08-28 15:46:10 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2675329951 PADLET ACTIVITY NUMBER 1 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2675345067 Yes Mass media do direct our attention towards the codes of acceptable behavior in our society.

For a long time, the country of the Philippines has always gone through the cycle of teachers providing for their students alone. This is manifested through their way of using the wage that is given to them to meet the needs of their students—that which may or may not still be met. As of August 29, most private and public schools have opened their gates to their enrollees when just a few weeks ago "Brigada Eskwela" started. This annual event of the Department of Education (DepEd) mainly consisted of requiring teachers to strip off colors and posters from classrooms to make the educational rooms bare; bright colors and interactive sheets of paper are distracting to a child's learning environment. As seen most of the time, the fees and budget were shouldered by the teachers themselves yet again. There were no provided stipends for the aid of 'fixing' classrooms. Teachers called out DepEd for the lack of cooperation with Educational Institutions that are in need of desperate funding especially for classrooms and equipment.

Some of the comments also discuss their own encounters with prejudice at NU Manila and other campuses of the university. "Same, parehas ng naranasan pinaakyat nila ako. So traumatic, sasamahan ka ng mga guard at nakatingin na akala mo kriminal ka."

In response to these viral videos, many students have expressed their opinions on social media, and even members of The National, the school's official publication, have a lot to say.

Students continue to address their concerns. Despite continued student protests and reform demands, the university has yet to publish a public statement addressing the issues. ]]> 2023-08-29 02:34:42 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2675997158 X https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2676004004 The role of Mass Media also includes giving details of famous superstars and movie performers to their fans. In the X platform, multiple accounts that are dedicated to giving updates to avid enthusiasts of celebrities exist for this specific purpose. A popular X user (@PopBase) is a significant example; the account currently has one million followers and still continues to give updates of various personalities. These include X updates of Taylor Swift, Nicki  Minaj, and Millie Bobby Brown. Having such handles that aim for reaching an extensive audience is interesting due to the reason that most if not all, participate. The existence of accounts similar to what has been mentioned is one of the various ways society participates in mass media.]]> 2023-08-29 02:39:26 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2676004004 Misinformation and Disinformation https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2676016410 Disinformation grew exponentially during the 2019 and 2022 elections in the Philippines due to the fact that there were networks of information manipulators and hackers that made their supporters have a growth of disinformation. This issue developed as a result of the tendency to win over voters. 

 Consequently, we must help people question the authenticity of statements they come across. We must urge the general populace to think critically and become the Filipinos that the younger generation and the future deserve. One must learn to speak, listen, and move—against deceit and for hope to attain the freedom we deserve. 

 Moreover, as cliche as it may be, perseverance in fact-checking and being a critical thinker and reader can also be used to combat false information. Rather than shaming, we must use communication skills such as encouraging others to be observant and critical in every piece of information we share.

Sometimes we don't notice, but we've already been eaten by the things that mass media provides to the point where we've become closed-minded; we must learn how to DISCONNECT or UNPLUGGED from those things, particularly Fake News. 

That is why I am determined and motivated to debunk fake news. When you throw a rock into the water, it causes a ripple. When someone stands up for the truth, surely somebody will too. As a citizen and part of the youth student, I believe that I have more power than I can imagine and I can use this power for the greater good. We should never share a story on social media without first verifying its accuracy.

This is one of the ways that people use to fathom the reasons why they act or think differently from others. The 16 Personalities Test is a framework from the MBTI and the test can be taken for free anywhere at anytime. People are lent an adequate amount of information of their corresponding personality that can help in understanding themselves after before knowing what their MBTI is. This craze has constantly been popular due to the reason that there are MBTI communities that remain until today. Celebrities mention this once in a while on TV as well. One thing that makes MBTI so known is how it can be easily understood. There are instances when people base most of their daily life on MBTI, but this should not be done. Though MBTI is a fun concept, it shouldn't be the sole basis and foundation of one's life—there are limits that still must be met.]]> 2023-08-29 03:01:26 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2676036443 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2676355991 it reminds me of different perspectives, friends, strangers, lovers, etc. each individual can distribute their behavior among many people or else, they can hide their true behavior based on their wishes. We have different behavior according to the person we want to, we become more selective based on the behavior we like and dislike. Various codes of conduct will enter into this behavior, because of how we interpret the behavior of others around us. sometimes we can be professional/unprofessional, because of how we see the actions of those around us. when it comes to our leadership and creativity, we can stand it more with the help of the right people around us, this is where we become confident, this is where we come up with ideas on how to work a healthy society. but if we don't get out of our comfort zone, there's a greater chance we'll get stuck in what we're used to. let's learn to be independent but we don't have to be alone all the time.]]> 2023-08-29 07:45:46 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2676355991 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2676357097 In this world full of negativity and positivity, we get to choose or feel our emotions. Despite having faced a lot of challenges and having succeeded, it is not required that you have fun or celebrate lavishly, but make it an inspiration to just continue in life. All feelings are valid. You can be sad, happy, tired, or persuaded; it doesn't matter if anyone judges you because it's you and your feelings. In this way, there will be boundaries or limitations in life. We become picky, or sometimes we want to be selfish. At some point, the only ally we can rely on is ourselves, but we also need to run from our families and friends. We must first think about ourselves in order to comprehend the circumstance. Cutting someone is a decision; society needs to address this issue. Since it was shared on Twitter, this tweet has received a lot of attention because the image conveys a quote to everyone who shares the sentiment expressed in it. Posting on this type of platform can be somewhat beneficial, but we must be careful about what we share or what we say about the topic because it could have an impact on ourselves or someone else.]]> 2023-08-29 07:46:54 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2676357097 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2676357751 Mass media helps us find true connection within ourselves and to others; we can be more vulnerable and fully connect to each other. As a cheerful person, I believe that the connection you build with the environment or people around you will never be emotionally exhausting but physically exhausting. I see that being involved in the media has a big impact on our lives. You share, receive, listen, and speak about your experiences in life. So somehow, media is our way to connect every day.]]> 2023-08-29 07:47:33 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2676357751 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2676409434 I have selected a picture or subject that is currently trending. To give slight context about the image, Pura Luka Vega is a drag queen who used or dressed up as Jesus Christ for a certain performance and also performed the remix version of the known church song, "Ama Namin". This issue reached to a bigger audience even the religious groups of our country.

The role of mass media showed here is presenting what are the acceptable behaviors in the country. Philippines is known to be a religious country since then, it is part of the country's tradition to respect every aspect of each religion (e.g. muslim, jenovah's witness, born again). Mass Media's part here also revealed how religious citizens reacted to the performance Puka Luka Vega showed. It appeared to them as mocking of the catholic church. We practice and follow our own norms especially inside the catholic church this reflected as disrespect to the religion and blasphemy. To add, It circulated around the internet how people have their own perspectives or opinion upon the issue.

It clearly shows how tired she is about the media being public about her personal life, to be specific, her love life or liking boys her type. She rants how irrelevant the topic is for the articles that are circulating around the web. 

The Mass Media's role here was to broadcast her personal life which for her was irrelevant. When her statement for liking Ina Raymundo's son or David Licuaco became a big deal to the viewers. The media used her career (being an artist) to gain attention on the articles that are circulating. The picture can also explain how the media can be very public about small things that can be trendy.]]> 2023-08-29 08:51:34 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2676420403 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2676432811 I have selected "Call of Duty" as the subject of this concept. "Call of Duty" is a mobile application that is frequently used by today's generation, you will somehow witness teenagers play this seriously when  they stream on some streaming platforms like Facebook, Twitch or YouTube. 

The role of the media here is simple, they show the players are easily attached to their teammates. This a game where you must interact with your teammates which are randomly selected by the game. You can also interact with a thing the players called "The Universal Chat", where you can easily socialize some players to invite them to play with you. You can disconnect with them because there is n option to leave the party or group you have created with them but still, you can still communicate with them on the friends/recently played players.]]> 2023-08-29 09:06:50 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2676432811 Discord https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2729747849 I have chosen Discord as the mass media that can help people to understand their connection, or disconnection from others. As Discord is not only used for communication, it's also utilized as a bonding platform. In which, you can easily watch movies with your friends or chat freely, while also being able to perform your own agenda. For instance, say that you are on a Discord Call with a friend, you can be doing your homework, and your friend could be playing Valorant or Call of Duty. In addition, Discord also offers anonymity, by grouping users onto designated servers. A way of connecting without actually knowing who really is there: a disconnection on a personal scale.]]> 2023-10-03 06:58:36 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2729747849 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2729791227 Kaachi is a K-pop girl group that made their debut in 2020 and is based in the UK. The group is made up of members from Britain, Korea, and Spain. Unfortunately, upon their debut, they faced criticism from K-pop fans who did not see them as a legitimate K-pop group. This is an example of how the media can influence what is considered acceptable and who is accepted in their world. Kaachi did not meet the standards set by K-pop fans and were therefore not welcomed. This is not an isolated incident, as the first Filipino P-pop group, SB19, also faced backlash from their fellow Filipinos who are fans of K-pop. The stigma against non-Korean idols was the reason for this. These incidents illustrate how fandoms can be exclusive and reject certain groups or individuals who do not meet their standards. This phenomenon is not limited to the K-pop world but also occurs in other fandoms where fans gatekeep the people who listen to mainstream music.]]> 2023-10-03 07:36:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2729791227 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2729824745 The example that I chose
is Alex Gonzaga receiving backlash for an inappropriate gesture towards a service crew. Because not only as an actress, but as an influencer as well, she is expected by many to be a role model towards her fans and people everywhere. That is why when she unwittingly makes a "joke" of smothering cake onto a service personnel's forehead, many eyebrows were raised. As different speculations began to arose, "Are they close?" "Does she have the right to do that?" "Is the man carrying the cake okay with this?". These are only some of the examples asked by netizens that saw the birthday video. Which relates to how the media is able to showcase society's standard regarding acceptable behavior of certain people. A well-renowned example of this topic, is, Cancel Culture. Pertaining to the harsh process of netizens everywhere in destroying someone's digital and personal identity by doing an act considered as unacceptable by modern standards.]]> 2023-10-03 08:05:18 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2729824745 Forced haircuts for school, comments section too toxic. https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2730207639 The picture depicts a social media post about forced haircuts for school, with the comments section being too toxic to handle. This relates to the concept of mass media directing people's attention towards the codes of acceptable behaviour within society because it highlights how social media can influence and shape people's opinions and beliefs about what is acceptable. It also shows how toxic online behaviour can negatively impact individuals and communities. In discussing this topic, it's important to address the effects of online behaviour on mental health and the need for respectful communication in both online and offline interactions.]]> 2023-10-03 13:04:58 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2730207639 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2730213011 The picture in the article shows a survivor of martial law in the Philippines confronting Ferdinand "Bongbong" Marcos Jr., the son of former Philippine dictator Ferdinand Marcos. The relevance of this picture to the concept of "What and Who Counts in Their World and Why" is that it highlights the power dynamics of the mass media in shaping public opinion and the historical narrative. Despite the atrocities committed during the Marcos regime, some media outlets and politicians have sought to downplay or even justify these actions. By giving a voice to survivors like the one in the picture, the media can challenge these narratives and highlight the experiences of those who have been marginalized or silenced. Overall, this picture serves as a reminder of the importance of independent media in holding those in power accountable and amplifying the voices of those who have been historically excluded.]]> 2023-10-03 13:07:35 UTC https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2730213011 https://padlet.com/jacancino1/h9t7hhb152lygv7k/wish/2730215466 The picture shows a man holding a phone with the words "fake news" on the screen. This is relevant to the concepts of Mass People to Themselves and Their Connection From Others Media Help Understand With, or Disconnection because it highlights the role of online platforms in disseminating information and shaping people's understanding of the world around them. With the rise of social media, it has become increasingly easy for false or misleading information to spread rapidly among large groups of people, leading to a sense of disconnection from reality.
