@Cam10Cham The ads effectively target some of the principles of persuasion that we talked about in lecture. It makes the content more desirable to us as consumers. #UWJ201 #320

@ZhiyuJin3 @davalos If you agree to their terms and conditions than you tell them that it is okay to do this with your private information. It is still a little alarming nonetheless. #UWJ201 #320

[shea roney @shroney02]

In lecture we discussed the several different principles of persuasion. To you personally, which principle do you find the most effective and why? #UWJ201 #320

[shea roney @shroney02]

@SaffronMears I think likability is the most effective for me because it’s a matter of positive takeaways. #UWJ201 #320

[shea roney @shroney02]

@AjKile22 I think it’s definitely a step in the right direction. I think all platforms should adapt to protecting their users from disinformation #UWJ201 #320

[shea roney @shroney02]

Are adds more persuasive or manipulative these days? What is an example of a manipulative add? #UWJ201 #320

[shea roney @shroney02]

@AlisonStecker I think everyone should know how to be skeptical knowing, but realistically, not everyone is going to take the time to fact check their sources. #UWJ201 #320

[shea roney @shroney02]

@SchillerCate I think it would be beneficial because polling allows for more private responses (so no one is pressured how to answer), while social media is a public forum. They both offer different ways to interpret public opinion #UWJ201 #320

[shea roney @shroney02]

When gauging public opinion about certain issues, how much should social media be considered and how would journalists interpret it? #UWJ201 #320

[shea roney @shroney02]

@londyn_butler I have never read the entirety of the terms and agreement. I agree that it is a trade off. We get a voice and a platform but it is at the hands of the large social media company. #UWJ201 #320

[shea roney @shroney02]

@ellese_martin Social media platforms have the right to de platform any users they find go against guidelines. But it’s walking a thin line between protecting users and exploiting their power. #UWJ201 #320

[shea roney @shroney02]

If large companies had more regulations on ownership over media outlets, do you think the media would be considered as biased as it is now? #UWJ201 #320

[shea roney @shroney02]

@aiello_dom As consumers, we can chose where to put our money and which source we watch. If we personally don’t like a company, we can chose to boycott it so it loses business. #UWJ201 #320

In discussion, we talked about how US news media is very western centric. Is there a way for the US media to become more internationally involved? #UWJ201

[shea roney @shroney02]

@Nathani27175733 @erinpease3 I think allowing yourself to hear both sides can really broaden your worldview. Even though we are so divided right now there is still a bigger picture than just an individual party. #UWJ201 #320

[shea roney @shroney02]

@Tgm02k I think there are more opportunities to be exposed to different forms of media and world views. As in a small town, your options are more limited. #UWJ201 #320

[shea roney @shroney02]

@AbelsonJulie I do think we have more similarities than we think we do. The problem with the geographical divide is that we latch on to stereotypes that water down our commonalities. #UWJ201 #320

[shea roney @shroney02]

In lecture, we talked about the geographical divide in news media consumption. Do you think there’s more to the picture of who consumes what media than just geographical location? #UWJ201 #320

@annapetr01 This is an interesting point! I guess that when my roommate makes a mess I don’t speak up so then it just sits there. #UWJ201 #320
