blog #12- Good-bye twitter

This video really bothers me. It Miley wants to get off twitter that is fine but she only did this video for attention, it is just another form of keeping people informed of what she is doing and that is the reason she got off twitter in the first place. I do think it is good that Miley got off twitter though. I think the whole thing is a little creepy, to follow everything that celebrities are doing and for her to actually delete it when she wasn't happy with having is good. I don't many other celebrities would do that because of liking the attention of it.

blog #11- media and violence

To a certain extent I think media constructs reality. For the most part it is something that can't be avoided but for some people i think they let it construct their reality. If all someone does is watch and read about celebrity's lives it would be harder for them to focus on their own lives. For those people, it may be easier for media products, such as violent video games or music videos, to result in violent acts. But for the most part I think the person committing the violent crime is the one responsible for it and it shouldn't be blamed on others.
