Key Concepts
-  Dissent:  One of the film's main themes is dissent. Edward Murrow is using his platform as a newsman on national television to oppose the actions of Senator Joseph McCarthy who makes false accusations of Communist influence in order to give himself power. 

- McCarthyism:  The whole era of the the "red scare" and the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC) was pushed by Senator Joseph McCarthy. Very few actual sentences were handed down to anyone, but McCarthy created a culture of fear across the nation by drumming up fear of Communism to such a degree that individuals started to mistrust and judge any person thought to be a Communist. ]]> 2018-06-13 02:37:05 UTC https://padlet.com/martyando8/nviyuf9zgzi6/wish/266934899 Goodnight and Goodluck https://padlet.com/martyando8/nviyuf9zgzi6/wish/266934984 1. the role of the media in criticizing the politics. Also censorship by politicians and sponsors. The fear of communism in the america and the effect McCarty had on the media and getting people to get behind him in his communist witch hunts.  
The roll of women in the 1950's is touched on with the
tradition women at home and men at work. also the work colleagues could not get married. 

2. why couldn't work colleagues get married? 
why they were losing money?

The courage it took for the CBS to speak on what they believed in, and to talk about how the way McCarthy  treated people was wrong.

1: Specifically, the role of partisan media in being able to preserve a political narrative. As shown, CBS was universally critically of McCarthy’s inquisition, yet how does this promote a clear debate? It would appear to be that the role of the media was less about fostering this debate, but rather about being demonising political actors. However it also conversely made so that McCarthy’s rebuttal to the allegations made against him also purely took the form of ad hominem attacks against the reporter. Hence, one must be able to infer that the quality of political debate as preserved by televised media was not so much based around the fostering and promoting of fair exchange of information, but rather the promotion of narratives and counternarratives. 
2: How well did the film represent how debate and criticism of government was conducted in 1950's America?
3: Not a great deal

]]> 2018-06-13 02:38:00 UTC https://padlet.com/martyando8/nviyuf9zgzi6/wish/266935019 1) Concepts: How influential McCarthyism was in the entertainment industry and on censorship https://padlet.com/martyando8/nviyuf9zgzi6/wish/266935031 2) Why was it so important for the couple to hide their marriage? How would it have affected CBS?
3) Showing how something as trivial as being in the workplace as a married couple effected people in the entertainment industry when in reality it is a minor problem when McCarthyism was at large]]> 2018-06-13 02:38:07 UTC https://padlet.com/martyando8/nviyuf9zgzi6/wish/266935031 Goodnight and Goodluck https://padlet.com/martyando8/nviyuf9zgzi6/wish/266935042 1.  the role of the media in politics was touched on in the film also the dangerous fact of speaking out against the norm or the accepted issues.
The role of women is clearly shown as there is only one woman actually part of the work force. whereas the rest of the women are receptionists, tea ladies and are just there to deliver the news to the men.
2. Why were the two people not allowed to be married?
Why did they limit the amount of screen time for Ed?
Why did McCarthy specifically target the CBS to reply to?
3. i now believe that McCarthy had a large influence over the media]]> 2018-06-13 02:38:13 UTC https://padlet.com/martyando8/nviyuf9zgzi6/wish/266935042 Goodnight and Goodluck https://padlet.com/martyando8/nviyuf9zgzi6/wish/266935079 2018-06-13 02:38:24 UTC https://padlet.com/martyando8/nviyuf9zgzi6/wish/266935079 Good Night and Good Luck https://padlet.com/martyando8/nviyuf9zgzi6/wish/266935102 Key Concepts:
- McCarthy accused people with no evidence, and when people tried to speak out about this, they were criticised and punished
- The paranoia that was created within America because of the threat of communism
- The idea of speaking out and censorship. Even though we are told we are entitled to "free speech" this is only to an extent. These producers spoke out and it damaged the reputation of the network.
Challenges:
- Did the actions of the CBS cause other news networks and media platforms to speak out about McCarthy's actions?
Changes:
- It showed how much public attention was gained over this issue and how much public debate and outrage it caused.]]> 2018-06-13 02:38:39 UTC https://padlet.com/martyando8/nviyuf9zgzi6/wish/266935102 Goodnight and Goodluck https://padlet.com/martyando8/nviyuf9zgzi6/wish/266935105 Key Concepts:
-  Role that the media plays in politics
- Propaganda 
- The danger of speaking out
- The jobs that women had- had less power than the men 
- The effect that McCarthy had on entertainment 

Challenges:
- Why weren't colleagues allowed to get married?
- Why was their screen time limited?
- Why did they need to start firing people?
- Why was the CBS the only ones to speak out, were others too afraid?

Changes:
- It shows how much of a role media plays during political issues and how it has the ability to affect the majority
- Speaking out can put people in real danger- the people at the CBS were taking a great risk
