  • Television's Negative Effect On Presidential Elections

    Angus Campbell once stated, “The advent of television in the late 1940’s gave rise to the belief that a new era was opening in public communication”. 75 years later, it looks like he was spot on. Since the invention of the television in the 1940’s, stations have decided to broadcast presidential debates on live television. The broadcasting of the debates has had some positive effects on presidential elections—such as a deeper connection between the president and the American people and a decrease in political party power—yet overall televised debates have had a negative effect on elections; the elections have turned too superficial and interest in candidates’ opinions on important matters have decreased. Due to televised presidential debates,

  • Discrimination In 'Death And The Maiden'

    1482 Words  | 6 Pages

    According to the Oxford English Dictionary, discrimination is the “unjust or prejudicial treatment of different categories of people, especially on the grounds of race, age, or sex.” Paulina Salas, the female protagonist of Death and the Maiden, is a character that has endured the worst discriminatory excesses of the Pinochet regime; raped and denied her political voice. While Dorfman sets his play during the transition from dictatorship, there are still signs of discrimination evident in the Escobar household and the wider society of the play. Death and The Maiden explores the unrelenting past lives of the victims that lived under a dictator’s shadow, whom are unable to attain justice through the characters such as Doctor Miranda and Paulina’s husband, Gerardo. By revealing the dynamics of the relationship between these three characters, I will argue that Dorfman reveals and criticizes the restrictions placed upon Paulina to have social participation.

The theory holds that “people influence the effects that mass media have on them” (Anaeto et al, 2008 cited in Edegoh, Asemah and Nwammuo, 2013, p. 23). The assumption of the theory is that people are not just passive receivers of media messages; rather, they actively influence the message effects. Media audience selectively choose, attend to, perceive and retain media offerings on the basis of their needs, beliefs, etc., thus, “there are as many reasons for using the media as there are media users”
