Blog #7 Pictures That Lie
Pictures that Lie
As we have looked at and talked about, the media can do many things with editing. It is just a fact of life.
Please go to the Pictures That Lie Website.
http://news.cnet.com/2300-1026_3-6033210-1.html?tag=ne.gall.pg
Once here you will see many images that have been altered in some way. I want you to look at these and see which ones stand out to you.
Once you have looked through ALL of the images, I want you to go to your Blog and Create a NEW POST (not a new Blog). In there I want you to tell me what 5 stood out to you the most. From there I want you to pick 1 to tell me more about (5-7 sentences about why you thought this one stood out the most, what you think, how you feel and whatever else comes to mind).
Enjoy the pictures. It is amazing what can be done with editing.

Provide at least three detailed examples of how media violence (games, newspaper reports, advertising, movies, lyrics, internet, TV news) is played out in real life. In other words, what is the impact of media violence on our daily lives?
I am not looking for a word count here. I am looking for a detailed response with three examples explained.
