Merry Christmas? Hmm

More like scary Christmas! All people think about around the holidays is what there going to receive or what there gonna buy for Christmas. Yeah it's fun, but what about the people that can't afford anything, or people that can't afford to have a Christmas dinner? I doubt their singing hymns, or worrying about who there gonna kiss under the mistletoe. Every year around the holidays me and my mom go to senior homes and spend time with the people who have no family or friends. We bring them flowers and candy and visit with each person. My reasoning to posting this blog is to remind you that even though the countdown to Christmas starts tomorrow, please make sure to think of the people who may not have anything to countdown too.

Tupac vs John Lennon

A few days ago me and my boyfriend were arguing about who is a better musician and who's words were more powerful to people. My opinion was that John Lennon was better, and he was insisting uac was better. Later on that day i was thinking about our little conflict, and i decided an answer of whos more worthy. Their the same. No on is better than another, and your just being bias if you think so. It all depends on how you were raised and the kind of people you grew up with that ultimatly effects your opinion. Tupac was a great musician and role-model. yeah i admit he's not exactly my style, but i can still respect him. and on John Lennons behalf, "Give Peace a Chance"!

Subliminal Messaging in Disney

So, this week in Media & Society we were discussing advertising and how sometimes they send out subliminal messages. Subliminal messages are something that the conscious mind doesn't see, but your subliminal mind picks up. I have heard that a bunch of Disney movies have Many subliminal messages, usually sexual based. Here are a few examples:
If you look closely, the dust in the air clearly spell out the words "sex".

The Little Mermaid cover seems as if there is a phallus right in the center... hm?

Does Disney Have a dirty mind? You decide.

"Radio" Ray Pietz

Voice of valley talk radio, "Radio" Ray Pietz of KGAL AM, gave a spoke to Rob Priewe's Media & Society class of about 10, on the obstacles of his past years and how those experiences influenced him to talk radio.
Oct. 21, Ray Pietz spoke to the Media & Society class about the development of modern day radio in the media, and how those advances affect listeners; such as the Telecommunications Act of 1996, enabling major companies to own as many stations as they like, limiting the point of views we the listeners acquire.
"You never know when you can run into something that will change your life forever" said Pietz, while discussing the term of his life when he was invited to broadcast school. "Radio has always been a magnet to me, drawn to me"
Students of Mr. Priewe's Media & Society class undeniably enjoyed Pietz optimistic outlook on situations; from reasons why he should be the one elected president, to the not-so-fair Telecommunications Act. Pietz speech was certainly worth listening to! To listen in on the fun yourself, tune to 1580 KGAL AM Monday-Thursday 11:06 a.m. – noon. You won't regret it.
