The yes side states that journalism has improved and keeps growing. Things like Facebook, YouTube, and Twitter are helping society be better informed in what is occurring at all times. The news is so fast that people do not have to wait all day for the news, or the next morning for the paper. People can also go back if they missed the news and watch it again. Videos on youtube and updates on social networking help people give there own opinions as well. This is the yes argument for the journalism improving.
The no side however argues that journalism is dying and becoming repetitive. It states that all of these different sites are saying the same thing and not benefiting people. It also believes that it is more and more bias and not the actual truth of the news but just people opinions. This is the no side on how journalism and internet is not improving.
I agree with the yes side, i think that journalism has improved dramatically. It is amazing how something can just happen and then seconds later be online, ready for people to read. People do not have to wait anymore, also i think the videos are great, people can go back and watch news shows that they missed. I think journalism and internet are improving more and more.

Is advertising good for society?
The yes side on the issue explains how advertising is good for society because it provides information that can benefit people in a way that they can learn about new products for there health and for their everyday living. Also it lets people get ideas on what they should be taking ans lets them go research it to find out if it is right for them. But without this advertising they would never find out what is out there. Advertising also provides more money for society and creates more jobs. This is why advertising is good and benefits the society.
The no side argues that advertising is pressures people to keep buying more and more things, when in reality they do not need these things to survive. These things are just junk and stuff they do not need. It creates anxiety for people and creates more stress in their lives. Advertising is also dishonest, and different companies put down one and other in there commercials and confuse the people. Also the health ads have more side effects than what they are actually curing. This is the no argument for why advertising is not good for the society.
In my opinion i think that the yes side is correct. Advertising helps the society and keeps people better informed. The no side does not give society to have a choice to say no to advertising or say yes. People can choose on what products to buy, advertising just helps better inform them on what can help.

Is hate speech in the media directly affecting our culture?
The Yes argument on the question simply states that popular media has caused people to act differently and more violent in reality. These people watch movies, news, and play violent video games such as grand theft auto and saints row. More and more people are attracted to this violence, because America likes violence in media. However America is seeing more and more crimes and murders due to following what they see and play. This media is becoming a lot more popular and is causing different ethnic groups too hate each other. Another example are the war games, like modern Warfare, these games have the U.S. killing all the middle eastern and other country's people in war. By these kids playing this it is teaching them that when they grow up to hate all these certain people and some of them act on it when they are older. When a lot of these people are citizens of the Unites States and have done nothing wrong. Hate Speech has directly affected the culture.
The No side argues that the study of extremist groups using internet has benefited them. In the middle east the internet and media has helped get the voice of these movements heard. First they form a group to stand up, and the journalists from the United States reads it and puts it out in the media and gets there voice heard to get them some power and help from others. With this being said media/internet has not affected the culture in a bad way.
In my opinion i believe that these video games are getting out of hand, and that a certain age should not be allowed to play them because they have not been taught a lot about the world and cannot judge it and or make violent acts based on a video game. And i do agree that the media has not affected the culture in the way that the movements in the middle east are succeeding.
