MMC 1000 students:

For your post this week, I’d like you to list me your three favorite magazines, why they are your favorites and how often you read each. I’d also like you to offer a short critique on each magazine on how it could increase its readership.

Mr. Marino

MMC 1000 students:

For your tumblr blog entry for this week, I’d like you to respond to this topic: the book mentions how newspaper executives are concerned about the low readership about young people (20s-30s).

How could you get more people in that age demographic to start reading the newspaper? Be specific. Consider the Internet and any other venues you feel would help increase readership among younger adults.

This should be about 4-8 paragraphs and please don’t include more than 1-2 sentences in each paragraph. (please make sure you spell and grammar/check (blue check mark button on menu tab above) your entry prior to posting it).

Mr. Marino

This week’s topic will coincide with your readings of the media ethics chapter.

Several professions (attorneys, physicians) have strict licensing requirements. In order to practice in either of those fields, you must undergo several additional years of education and then pass a licensing or entrance exam.

For your topic this week, I’d like you to respond to the following questions

Should journalists undergo the same scrutiny )additional education, etc.) and have to pass an exam (like attorneys and physicians) in order to work in that field? What should be the minimum requirements to became a journalist? Should we create a “professional journalist” job title?

Respond to all three questions.
