Description

How does media function in a free society? How are race, class, women, the poor, LGBT, and other under-represented
populations portrayed? How do we face ethical challenges posed by traditional media and participatory media like
dating websites, news boards, Facebook, and Twitter? This class offers a critical, in-depth analysis of modern media.
