to what extent does the changing image of the american media contribute?
Q. to the general perception of the decline or degredation of the democratic process? should one be worried that people are becoming more and more accustomed to viewing popular media sources as having a larger entertainment and for-profit motivation rather than objective reporting? by accepting the current state and adapting, does one enter into a contract which serves to enhance the evolution of culture, or should a stalwart stance be taken against making this agreement?

A. The media definately contributes to the degredation of the democratic process. People are so involved in the media and so few read books and newspapers that they don't apply thier own critical thinking to recognize the issues and to do come up with a solution. Of course this is just what the authority is looking for. The last thing they need is educated people coming in their way of running things.

Did the media contribute to people's obsession with home ownership and thus contribute to the credit crunch?
Q. Countless programmes and articles detailed how to improve properties, sell them on etc etc - so could the media be partly to blame for why people over extended themselves with unaffordable mortgages etc? The psyche perpetuated the last few years has always been renting is a waste of money etc
Asked by Smiley - Sun Feb 22 03:16:40 2009 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Many people losing home are actually families that only own the house they live in. It wasn't the media in the sense of infomercials offering programs to teach people to buy and flip homes. What contributed to this were the banks and mortgage lenders relaxing the guidelines and loosening of the credit to income ratios, lowering the required down payment. In essence selling home with adjustable mortgages or with balloon payments these families couldn't afford it. These people probably wanted a home and always thought it was beyond their reach, now add in the relaxed lending procedures. This is what has led us to this housing crash.

A. Often science is a 'closed community'. Scientists communicate with other scientists and no-one else. But, let someone tell a newspaper that a comet is likely to come close to the Earth!! Suddenly we all become knowledgeable about the solar wind; the accuracy of prediction software, the magnification provided by the Hubble Space Scope; what Life on Earth would be like if a collision resulted, how such an event led to the extinction of the dinosaurs...

Asked by Miley - Tue Jan 26 12:45:25 2010 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. The most accurate predictor of violence is the income gap. The gap between the have and the have nots is the biggest cause of crime. In general there are countries like Canada that have far more guns per person then the USA that don't have near the violent crime. There are many democratic socialized nations in europe that have gun freedom but hardly any crime. They measure the difference between the top 20% and the bottom 20% and the usa is the highest...as well we have the most crime and the most imprisoned people. For example: we have more people in prison then communist china that has a vastly larger population. bottom line in income inequality is the biggest reason for crime. higher taxes and more strong social safety nets=Le [cont.]

how does bacterial or viral contamination contribute to media turbidity?
Q. how does bacterial or viral contamination contribute to media turbidity?
Asked by KANASAI - Wed May 20 05:33:17 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Media turbidity refers to the suspension of bacterial cells in a liquid media. As the number of bacterial cells increase, the liquid takes on a cloudy appearance. Think of this in terms of kool-aid: if you take a glass of water (clear appearance) and start adding kool-aid a teaspoon at a time the water gradually becomes more cloudy (turbid) with each successive teaspoon. More teaspoons = more turbidity. In the case of bacteria: more growth = more cells = more turbidity. Just a note: just because the media has become turbid does not necessarily mean it is because of contamination. Liquid media is used to grow bacterial cells for research purposes.

The message I get when I go to read my E-mail is, you need make-up, you're ugly, you have acne, you need new clothes and shoes. My boyfriends marketing message is you have money, invest it wisely, come to the Caribbean. It starts to get to you after a while.

A. Certainly it does as it reduces through continued absence of appearances. The knowledge, wisdom and authority of older Americans is diminished when all the public sees are the constant appearances of the young news presenters. When they start to show their age, they are quickly replaced by a new younger person. It really takes no intelligence, well, not much anyway to read a teleprompter, just be young and pretty for the camera. L8r

Does the media's Recession Obsession contribute to people's....?
Q. Does the media's Recession Obsession contribute to people's fears about the future and feeling of dread ? It seems the 24/7 coverage of how bad the economy is - how bad it will get - how low it can go - how deep it can dive - would have an affect on the mindset of the people. What role do you think the media's Recession Obsession plays in our economic situation ? I'm not suggesting not reporting the news, the facts; but the saturation of the same bad news repeated over and over again was the point I was making; not to mention the spin whichever media source wishes to put on it. That's all I'm saying.

People get worried, they cut back on their spending, and we re in a recession. Now we re in a real one, brought on by our social engineers in Washington who decided that people who couldn t afford to buy houses could buy them with zero-down, negative amortization loans with upfront teaser rates that were good for two or three years.

Asked by Jeanine D - Wed Nov 12 04:20:44 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. The use of the medium of sculpture (whether in marble, bronze or other stones) to produce statues - whether they were idealized (Greek) or realistic (Roman) - contributed greatly to the effectiveness of the works. Statues - characterized by 3-dimensional figures, in many cases life size - were sited in public places (temples, plazas, meeting places) and would have made a tremendously strong impression on the public. If another medium - say painting (which is 2 dimensional) - had been used to depict famous people or mythological figures - their effect would have been much less. (also they could not have been placed outside, subject to all weather conditions).
