Where am I?

By writing these blog assignments, I have been noticing broadcast indecency more than ever before.

One memory from TV the stuck out to me was a Burger King commercial. The commercial was quite frankly, premeditated murder. Mothers were blatantly, without falter asking a hit man to whack Mr. King. When my friend Steve and I watched this commercial, we sort of looked at each other in shock. Oh did it get our attention.

I have been observing how much media really influence people. Transformation happens on such a large scale one might not even notice the miniature revolutions that alter nations. Everywhere you turn there is a form of media in your view. It seems to me that we live in some sort of byproduct of mainstream media. It has affected virtually everything that happens in this country.

The media is so large that trying to correct it is quite impossible. Media can be a good thing when it is used properly, but recently it seems to me to be promoting everything that we as a human race should try to eradicate.
