I use different stories every week and use different key words every week.

I think that I could write more about each story and I could expand more on each point, which I need to apply this  in both units for Mr Bush and Mr Halsey, I think that I need to post up more blogs and posts about the  New and Digital media, as I have less post on my blogger. I need to start give more facts and statistics on each story, also I need to start added more key media words, terms and terminology and apply it to all my work. I need to start using  a diverse range of information when write all my stories, moreover, I need to put more depth in all of the stories.Also, I need to write more about my opinions when writing the stories, as all of this can help me with my unit and the exam at the end of the year.

Web 2.0 – Participation or Hegemony


Nick Lacey explored the issues that has the Web 2.0 been democratised our access to the media now a days, and has it switched the power from produce to the audience. Lacey says that web 2.0 allow the audience to become produces of the media and their texts, as they can write their opinion and view on YouTube channel and videos (UGC), people can now write their views on blogs and social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter. People don’t need –people can say or write things in the media now days, as they don’t need a gate keeper. They would be happier to write their opinion and view on the internet as it has such a mass audience online, as they don’t need to pay for certain things in the media, they can just write it and say it.

Key information:
* No more gatekeepers
* Audiences have become producers

In the Age of Media Six Questions about Media and Participation

David Buckingham, Professor of Media and Communications at Loughborough University, claim that society and Web has changed through the years, as new technological and equipment has changed the way people think now days. Professor Buckingham claim that before in the past there was just one person or a specific people that just controlled the social media people saw in the past, as that they only had the right to say and do what they felt like, so people didn’t really have a chose on the media in society back then, he also says that the ads we watch has brought a bigger and broader media revolution, as a result that everyone has power and controller in the media in society now.  He says that blogs and forums give people the opportunities to give their own views and opinion in the media. That now day people do need to be a critic, that ordinary people can say what they like in society, which has effect the media a lot, as people can accuses and write their options and views anytime and anywhere in the world and that everyone has the freedom to say what they feel like it.  As Facebook and Google are the richest online businesses.   

Key information:

BBC to create CBeebies Land

BBC to create CBeebies Land

http://www.theguardian.com/media/2013/oct/15/bbc-cbeebies-land-alton-towers



The BBC has made a deal with the owners of the Alton Towers business to create a CBeebies land at the resort, this will allow the fans of Igglepiggle, Upsy Daisy and Postman Pat a chance to meet their favourite characters at the resort, also, the chance to go onto their branded rides and games in Alton Towers.

The BBC has made a multi pound million deal with the owners of LEGOLAND and also the iconic Madame Tussauds in London, which the CBeebies Land will be created in spring next year.

 I think that this is a good investment for the BBC as they know million of children has been watching the channel for a long time with their parent, as they have found a gap in the market compared to their competition and have appealed it to their business, which will help their business a lot, as they’ll make a lot of money from this every year, if this keeps on happening.

As Miley had over 270 million views on her YouTube. on the first week when the song Wrecking Ball was released the song had 211 million views on it.

The only reason why this song has so many views on it, is the drama around Miley Cyrus and the action gown in the music video, as she is known as the 'white girl who can twerk', as she has shown evry that in her early re;eased song this year called ' we can't stop and the vma performance in august, as in this video she is licking a hammer and swing around on a huge rock, nude.
