Media Literacy

      The other day in class we watched 2 very interesting videos in media studies 120. The videos were about what is media literacy, and the other was media literacy education and choice. The first video I will be discussing is "What is Media Literacy?". we learned about how to read about the media, how the media has over 3000 advertisements a day so they can try and bring people in to buy new things, and that the media has a lot of financial needs. The second video was called "Media Literacy - Education and Choice"; it was about how we should know who made the video, media ca be dangerous, and they try to gain profit and or power. Even looking around the classroom i can see so many different advertisements such as Fox, Bass Pro Shops, Hollister, HP, and etc.
