- Lesson
- Minimum of 1 scholarly source (can include your
textbook)
Initial
Post Instructions
For the initial post, respond to one
of the following options, and label the beginning of your post indicating
either Option 1 or Option 2:
Option 1: The framers of the Constitution were concerned that
everyday citizens would not be able to understand or comprehend the makings of
our government. They felt that everyday citizens were uninformed and did not
care what was going on in our government. Even today we see where citizens are
interested in government affairs seemingly only if our country is in turmoil
such as unemployment, recessions, civil unrest, etc. Do you agree with this
assessment? Are we uninformed? Do we wait till a crisis happens to voice our
opinions?
Option 2: Many experts see the media as biased and more like
infotainment. In fact, many people have turned to social networks as an outlet
for news instead of CBS, NBC, FOX, CNN and other news stations. Do you see this
as an issue? Do you see the news as biased or unbiased? Should there be more
restrictions on the news stations?
Be sure to make connections between
your ideas and conclusions and the research, concepts, terms, and theory we are
discussing this week.
