IMPACTS OF MEDIA

The story I chose to evaluate was the recent new world record setting of the 'Fastest Speed of a Jet Powered Suit'.

SECOND SOURCE

LEARNING TARGETS

• Validity- This article is not taken out of context and is a factual story.
• Accuracy- From reading many sources on this topic and watching visual proof I can conclude that this story is accurate.
• Ideology- This article proves to us and let's us think (because it's true) that Richard Browning broke the world record for fastest jet powered suit.

• Bias- I do not believe hat there is any bias involved in this article. Like I stated before, it is purely factual.
• Prejudice- I strongly believe that there are no stereotypes or prejudices involved in this article.

THIRD SOURCE

In Bobby's Facebook post sharing 'Guinness World Records's article on the record break he states "Almost there,if it is fully stable,i'm gonna have that one,,maybe!!" (Bad grammar, I know).

LEARNING TARGETS

• Validity- I believe that the article itself is not taken out of context, nor the post by Bobby himself.
• Accuracy- The accuracy of the article is very legit, along with Bobby's excitement for the jet powered suit.
• Ideology- I believe that Bobby would like us to think that the Jet powered suit is immensely fascinating and would be an interesting object to own/possess.

CONTINUED

• Emotional Appeal- The emotional appeal to Bobby's post is to make us feel happiness and excitement for the new coming suit that we may possibly purchase in the future.
• Bias- Yes, I have reason to believe that Bobby is biased in favor of the suit. He strongly thinks that it is cool and wants one even though he has not taken in to consideration that the suit could be potentially very dangerous.

CONTINUED

• Prejudice- I do not believe that there are any stereotypes or prejudices involved in Bobby's post.
