Disneyland and Walt Disney World

I think every American Citizen should go see the wills tower in Chicago because that is the world biggest tower, there is also a lot of history behind it. I think another pace everyone should go if the want to make themselves feel like an effective American citizen is to the capital of the united states in Washington DC. I think those would be great places to go if you wanted to feel like a effective American citizen. Those might not be the happiest and most exciting places in America but they are very historic and memorable to us as Americans.

Intertextuality


This is an example of Intertextuality because the picture on the left is from the movie the Lady& The Tramp movie and the on the right is just two dogs that are from a different movie but are sitting like the dogs do in the other movie.

this is an example of Intertextuality because they are both in love in this movie.

Alissa Quart sees the teen approach of being cool in a whole different perception. Alissa looks as it as that teenagers have disposal income- we have a lot of money in high school because we don't have to pay for anything then. We think we are cool when we go out and buy everything but in the future we wont have any money control. She also thinks that advertising causes brand loyalty. Klosterman just thinks kids are ocky and that's why we think we are cool

TV Violenece

In the Reading Tv Violence by Chuck Klosterman he thinks most people that watch violent acts or are anywhere around them, then they are the ones that are going to be the bad ones out in this world. in the video The Mean World Syndrome George Gerbner decided that after he got out of the army that he was going to be a Media Scholar. He did a lot of research he discovered that by the end of elementary school a kid would see 8,000 murders and 20,000 acts of violence by the age of 18. That is what the two differences of the two are. The thing they do have in common is that they both talk about violence and they both have interesting facts going on.


In the Video Mean World Syndrome started in the United States. George Gerbner explained that he was unlisted in the US Army and after that he turned into a media Scholar. He had exposure to the media events it started to affect him, he figured out that 8,000 murders are seen before you are out of elementary school. 20,000 different violent acts are seen on tv and from the media by the time you are 18 years old. They thought violence was meant to tell a story, instead it gave kids nervous disorders. We all very intrigued in the media! In the reading from this week from Chuck Klosterman he says that people think that if they are going to watch violent stuff then their the ones that are going to become violent and be the bad people in life. The APA controls people mental health and makes sure there okay. this is the difference between the readings and the video we watched
