Since this class is all about media, I thought that I'd share this short video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0AL4yml3bw
It basically warns people about false media representations/news. It is the story of 2 reporters who were fired because they refused to lie to the public. The report that they had done endangered an important corporation. This company did not want to truth to come out and be told to the public.
I think that this would be an excellent video to show to students and begin a class discussion with it afterwards. It would also encourage them to think critically about media and about the news that we are fed everyday. They would also be encouraged to reflect on what is true in the media and what they can do to find out the truth.
