#COMM316 @RoseannPluretti Even though Roche speaking out is an important advance of support, why is it that once a man (SCWAMP checklist fulfilled) reinforces the victim we are more likely to believe her? Men’s voices seem to be prioritized even on progressive media platforms
"As Brett's roommate, I'm in a singular position ... to say, 'listen, I saw him do this stuff that he said, under oath, that he didn't do.'" Jamie Roche, Kavanaugh's freshman Yale roommate, explains his reasoning for coming forward at this time https://t.co/3ArNVeLZkL
@RoseannePlurretti #COMM316 Very interesting article highlighting the overlooked stories of immigrants. Story books are very powerful and influential for children as they grow up, better representation is key!

So spring time in the mountain is the best time of year! #comm316 #grandtetons #canonphotography #landscapephotography #mountains #getoutside #wyoming #Canon #CanonFavPic
It is really interesting how Dean talks about the French word meme being used in place of the word "same." The purpose of most memes is to draw an image referring to a relatable topic or idea so it makes a lot of sense #COMM316
@kvriibaby @Elich_Comm316 I agree. I think the bias is in the way the bot ‘exemplifies an ideal of male attractiveness’ and in ‘their aesthetic and their vocabulary’ (‘what is considered desirable’) rather than who they choose to target. #COMM316
@darbyphilbrick Not embrace the negative messages, but parody/ satirize them rather than censor them #comm316
I don't think an online response, such as a Facebook comment or video response, are more powerful than a positive representation of a group on a powerful type of medium #COMM316
Penney states that he thinks organizations like GLAAD should transition to a more iconophilic approach in their work but i believe the solutions he outlined are only a bandage for the bigger problem #COMM316
1/ Earlier this year Facebook said it had rolled out a system that would catch advertisers who tried to buy housing, credit and employment ads that excluded people by race.
We tested it. Our discriminatory ads for rental apartments sailed through.

Can decisions in the legal process be made without personal bias? Bias is so pervasive in everyday life, and it is often difficult to unlearn. #COMM316
Sometimes it seems like it would take less time to understand race and racism than to actually practice colorblindness #comm316
I realized, in class, that we are the people who ultimately "make" these microcelebrities even if they have no particular talent #COMM316
The Instafame article reminds me of the photo of the DoomedManOnSubwayTracks. Our obsession of immortalizing the moment through a picture comes at the cost of truly experiencing that moment, and in this case, desensitizes us to prioritize online activity over real life #COMM316
Although a vast majority are not POC, “microcelebrity” and “Instafame” has allowed for more representation in media. #COMM316
I feel as though notable status has always been an enticing concept for humans because of the benefit it provides individuals in out hierarchical society #COMM316
Content creators on social media tend to create content catered to their audience, not content that comes from “self-expression” #COMM316
