If it tugs at your heartstrings- a baby giggling in diaper ad, or if it creates a sense of urgency or fear "Act Now Before It's two Late." both these examples target a certain demographic when advertising and want you to appeal to their product. #UWJ201 #310

Absolutely, the rise in target marketing can definitely lead to some demographics being overlooked because they rely on algorithms that analyze user data. If data is skewed some groups might be underrepresented. Less digitally active communities- invisible to algorithm #310 #J201

I feel that curiosity does play a role in how new generations get their news and drives people to seek more information when they encounter brief or vague news from less detailed sources. A headline might spark interest, prompting the viewer to do further research. #UWJ201 #310

Likeliness works best on me as I view a lot of social media influencers as role models and will engage in what they're trying to sell or promote. I do like to follow trends or start trends. I also feel I go with what catches my eye most of the time usually being makeup or celebrity. #UWJ201 #310

The benefits of correcting misinformation generally outweigh the risks because false beliefs can make it harder to change people's views, but using the right methods such as providing clear-evidence based information to reason beliefs. #UWJ201 #310

To prevent the spiral of silence in a group creating spaces for open dialogue and promoting respect for diverse opinions can help. Encouraging media literacy, supporting smaller networks and having public figures helps as well. #UWJ201 #310

Even when coverage is factually accurate, people may still view it as biased due to their own beliefs or experiences. This is considered the hostile media effect, where individuals interpret neutral reporting as being against their perspective. #UWJ201 #310

This can limit alternate voices in the media because while centrist bias may appear neutral, it can exclude radical, or marginalized perspectives by framing them as extreme or uncredible. #UWJ201 #310

Yes, I think it can be interpreted as a type of framing however agenda setting determines which topics get attention, framing influences how these topics are understood. #UWJ201 #310

Both thinkers emphasize that true fulfillment comes from meaningful engagement in life rather than just chasing pleasure. Happiness is tied to purposeful actions rather than fleeting emotions. #UWJ201 #310

Implementing a system of teachings for the older generations at community locations such as libraries or town hall. #UWJ201 #310

My favorite example of digital media are advertisements for me because they are effective in getting me to buy merchandise, test out new fitness hacks, and engage with my followers. #UWJ201 #310

I think this mostly affects the younger generation 6-14 as they have grown up with cellphones for the majority of their life. I think playing video games can be fun in moderation, however the increasing use of violence in these games isn't what kids should be focusing all their time on. #UWJ201 #310

Yes, news outlets especially in the age of 24 hour cycles, often focus on sensational or negative stories. Over time this can create a skewed perception of reality, making the world seem chaotic and dangerous. #UWJ201 #310

Journalists are storytellers as most articles and lecturers promote. Beyond just reporting facts, they have to gain the reader's attention. In doing this, allows them to develop into better reporters of news and spark connections. #UWJ201 #310

One strategy that wasn't mentioned in lecture is brand identity. An ad's goal is to emphasize a brand's personality such as the Nike swoosh and "Just Do IT." When people identify with the slogan or lifestyle they are more susceptible to purchase. #UWJ201 #310

I pay atttention to the ads that stick out to me on social media. I get a lot ads pertaining to dance and makeup products. I engage with ads that I'm interested in the product
