Meme for the second media analysis essay! #UWJ201 #319

@LiamKelso10 When it comes to advertisements, there has been a huge increase in ads on entertainment platforms. One of the places where ads have increased is Youtube. This can be due to an increased user base with a lot of people. #UWJ201 #319

@jaisinha21 I think that this practice can be extremely effective for companies because it allows consumers to build a "connection" with the product making it feel more personal. #UWJ201 #319

With a shift in marketing towards social media, what do you think are some of the positives and negatives from this shift? #UWJ201 #319

@jennaaschwarz When it comes to a vaccine, many people already have predisposed feelings on the topic. There have been many incentives for people to get the shot, however no matter what advertising won't reach everyone due to selective listening. #UWJ201 #319

@Jacob_Zeddie I think that Facebook and other social media platforms will be difficult to regulate no matter what due to the sheer population of the websites. Instead of regulation I think there will be more of a shift to trustworthy sources. #UWJ201 #319

When it comes to advertising and media, we see it everywhere we go. How can advertisers use media to their advantage to promote their product in the best way possible? #UWJ201 #319

@GummellaRishi I think that younger generations that primarily receive their info through social media will become more susceptible to bias. Social media tends to show society what they want to see which can be dangerous for individuals. #UWJ201 #319

@bethshoop23 As generations continue to grow older, they will stick to what they know the best. More traditional news styles are used by older generations meaning that there is a possibility that it will fizzle out over time. #UWJ201 #319

In the Time article by Safiya Noble, Google states that they cannot control the results because it is based on an algorithm. Do you think this clear bias should be fixed by Google themselves or do you think society as a whole needs to reconsider their morals? #UWJ201 #319

@kaseysteinn I think our public trust in the media has dropped over time due to how much more accessible media has become these days and how we consume that media. For example, partisans who are more polarized are more likely to lose trust in media that differs from their own. #UWJ201 #319

@baphomvta In today's media economy I would say that opinion journalism is helpful. Opinion pieces are important to take into consideration as a member of society. They allow us as media consumers to take in all different points of view rather than just one.

[JAKE STEEVES @JakeSteeves9]

In Professor Rojas' lecture, we discussed how partisans are shifting to believe that individuals from the opposing party are less intelligent due to affective polarization. do you think this is mainly due to social media or some other form of media? #UWJ201 #319

@BerensBridget I think that as we enter the new age of social media it is important that there should be more accountability within these corporations. Whether it is using more moderators to censor content or removing groups as a whole, it is necessary to stop disinformation. #UWJ201 #319

[JAKE STEEVES @JakeSteeves9]

@EllaBuffalo I would agree that deplatforming can sometimes be incorrect and ban someone who was not meant to be banned. I think another negative effect of deplatforming is the way it can cause spiral of silence in certain groups. #UWJ201 #319

[JAKE STEEVES @JakeSteeves9]

@bjerke_paige In this case, I think that the ban was necessary to prevent further dangers. One thing that I did find interesting was that these companies have the power to completely shut out one of the most powerful people in the nation. #UWJ201 #319

[JAKE STEEVES @JakeSteeves9]

In lecture this week we discussed media censorship and its role in society. After reading more about deplatforming, it seems that it serves more as a distraction from structural issues within these social media platforms. Opinions? #UWJ201 #319
