Role/Impact of social media in Television PROTOJE ONLY
agjrn574Each student will write an 800 to 1000-word article on some aspect of television. The article should be written in a style that might appear in a TV, media or technology magazine or Web site like one of the following:
Wired Magazine
Broadcasting & Cable
Variety
TVNewser
You want to write about some aspect of television that would be of interest to a general audience. The topics could include things like: the history and development of specific genres of TV shows; the role social media plays in TV watching in general, or in conjunction with specific shows; how Netflix is changing the TV industry; the ground-breaking nature of the TV show Scandal; how video games are translated into television; the relationship between YouTube and TV episodes. Do NOT write plot summaries of your favorite TV shows. Some acceptable topics:
- The use of Twitter in TV shows
- How the measurement of TV ratings are changing
- Representations of women, minority groups, etc., on TV
- How new technology is shaping sports programming
- History, development or future of Spanish-language TV in the US
Most of your sources will come from the popular press, not scholarly articles. Think Lexis-Nexis instead of Mass Media and Communication Complete. Examples of good sources from the popular press include:
- The New York Times
- The Wall Street Journal
- The Miami Herald
- New York Magazine
- Wired Magazine
- Time Magazine
- Broadcasting & Cable Magazine
- TV Guide
- Rolling Stone Magazine
You may also include among your sources Web sites and blogs that are produced by reliable organizations. These include:
- The Huffington Post
- EW.com (Entertainment Weekly)
- TVNewser.com (a blog about the TV industry)
- http://www.mediaite.com/
You can find reputable blogs related to your topic by using the Google. For example, “Top 10 blogs about television” returns:
It is up to you to determine whether or not the blog or Internet resource is legitimate. If the Web site is sponsored by a legitimate organization (like a university or an industry organization), then it’s probably good. If the blog has been around for a while, has a lot of posts and has been updated recently, that is also an indication that it has something worthwhile to say. If the blog was created yesterday on wordpress.com – this is not such a good sign. You must use your judgment. If you are unsure if a Web resource is OK, you may send me the URL to check it out, but I expect you to have done some due diligence first.
