13D: Marxism and Pluralism - To what extent...

NDM Question

Developments in new/digital media mean that audiences can now have access to a greater variety of views and values.  To what extent are audiences empowered by these developments?

Sample answer: Audiences are empowered by being able to access a wide variety of news and opinion using a single device such as their phone or tablet. The ease with which someone can check the Guardian website and Mail Online – both for free – means that they can access a wide variety of views before forming their own opinions on the news.

Blog task

You should have a variety of arguments that agree AND disagree with the idea audiences are empowered by new and digital media - thanks to your group task in the lesson. You now need to answer the question on your blog in essay format. Minimum word count: 500 words.

You will have Friday's lesson to continue this but if you don't finish it on Friday then you'll need to finish for homework - due next Wednesday.

Don't forget your ongoing homework - two NDM stories on your blog, one involving news or journalism.
