@MarleyComito I think the most effective is likeability or social proof. I think likeability is very persuasive because it pulls at emotions and makes people feel a certain way. Social proof is also very persuasive because it's relatable. #UWJ201 #307

@Camila_Rivero_ Personally, I think likeability is the most compelling in my own personal experience. It really makes me more intrigued when an ad uses emotional appeal. It makes me think about it even after the ad is over. #UWJ201 #307

In lecture today, we talked about the 6 persuasion principles. These are mostly seen through advertising. Which techniques do you think is most relevant in modern times, which one do you see the most of? #UWJ201 #307

@clarapadgham People believe what they read, so if they continuously read misinformation, they will believe that and share it with others. There will be repercussions with people not actually knowing the truth about important issues or topics. #UWJ201 #307

@EllieOverkamp @clairejohnsonuw I think that with a more diverse group of people working for these companies, they would be able to share their own experiences and help solve some of these issues. I don't think it would solve the problem, but like you said, it would be a good first step. #UWJ201 #307

In lecture we talked about TV news becoming less popular and online becoming more popular. Do you think that TV news will disappear in a few years when new generations come along? Or do you think our generation will watch more TV as we age? #UWJ201 #307

@Sclark978 I don't know if we can change this perception. The internet is so large and a lot of content on the internet is from the media. The media continues to be biased and show divide, even though the majority doesn't want this divide. #UWJ201 #307

[Madison Haering @MadisonHaering]

@CeceBabat Politicians need to realize that the majority of people do not want this divide, and it can start to hurt them rather than help them gain popularity or votes. News outlets need to show this idea that a majority of people do not like this divide. #UWJ201 #307

One concept that really stood out to me during lecture today was when Hernando said that 60% of the population is online and 50% is on social media. Do you think those percentages will go up for future generations and as the internet becomes even more popular? #UWJ201 #307

@enelyuw I also that was extremely interesting and kind of a bit frightening. If they all say the same thing, how is there any way we get new information or difference of opinions. It makes me wonder if there are other things in the media that are similar to this. #UWJ201 #307

[Madison Haering @MadisonHaering]

@top_left_tom I think that following the guidelines are important, however, it seems like its always far-right conservative information that is getting censored. It's rarely far-left content. Do you think maybe the guidelines themselves are biased towards the left? #UWJ201 #307

Company's own a large variety of the TV stations or movie studios. It really struck me when we looked at the diagram of everything that Disney owns. Do you think the company has any influence on the content that is produced by these news stations for example. #UWJ201 #307

@abigail_deroche I think that by being in the public's eye, you end up sacrificing privacy. However, I don't always agree with the fact that news sources attack personal lives. It creates a whole new aspect of framing and bias in my opinion. #UWJ201 #307

[Madison Haering @MadisonHaering]

@AlegraWaverley @noa_chamberlin This is a very interesting question that is tough to answer. I think that it has to do with the media's agenda and how they want to frame stories. Their facts might not necessarily be wrong, but twisted in a way to embellish a certain issue/story. #UWJ201 #307

[Madison Haering @MadisonHaering]

Do you think the public being aware of this bias and negativity will result in a change in the media? Will news become less negative and less bias? #UWJ201 #307

[Madison Haering @MadisonHaering]

In lecture, we briefly talked about how the public perceives a biased media, and the stories on the news are negative. In my interviews, I found that people of older generations mentioned how the news is so much more consistently negative now than in past years.#UWJ201 #307

@arosenfeld_ I do think we are misinformed because we use our phones constantly, but the retention rate for phones is lacking. It would be interesting to see what would happen and how people would start think if we started reading newspapers again. #UWJ201 #307

[Madison Haering @MadisonHaering]

@r_buckner12 I think it can relate to other types of media.I think the media in general has this motto because they are constantly challenging people's views. People are comfortable with what they believe and the media challenges that with the information they report about. #UWJ201 #307

[Madison Haering @MadisonHaering]

In lecture, Scott Dikkers mentioned that the real pandemic is "ignorance". He said that this is because people have no criteria. They believe everything they in print read or hear on the news. Is this a result of the media's agenda setting and framing techniques? #UWJ201 #307

[Madison Haering @MadisonHaering]

@kaseysteinn I think that it divides us because people are scared to voice their own opinions. It's so interesting to hear other people's thoughts, but if people get scared to voice them, we will never have a way for those new ideas to be heard. #UWJ201 #307
