Who is to blame?

Should society blame the media for the actions of people?  

Task 1.  Write a short essay (8-10 sentences) supporting your claims.  Use one of the examples below as your topic, or create your own topic and use specific examples for your argument.  (i.e. what video game or movie?)  If your answer is that the media is not to blame, then explain who is.

EXAMPLES:

• Video Games on School Violence
  
• Marilyn Manson and Screamo Music (Kalispell Juggalos and ICP)
  
• Teen Mom Television Shows
  
• Advertising and Body Image
  

Task 2.  Respond to two of your classmates' posts.   Do you agree with their argument?  Why or why not?  What can you add?


As always,
