What influences your values about issues relating to your life?

The media influences my values to my life just like seeing people that are different like different race or religion and when I see them I straight away think of what the media has portrayed them as eg poor bombings, shootings etc and that’s why the media has a big impact on my values

Do you ever compare images/values presented by the media to those of the bible? If so why? If not why not?

I don’t because I don’t know much images or values from the bible which is bad for me so i really can’t compare media from the bible in my case.

Has this project challenged you to examine your values? Why / Why not

Yes it has because i’ve just realised the media has a huge affect on my life because they and especially today our think pair share activity with those images we were given and they were something completely different to what us students thought it would be.

How do you feel the media portrays social justice issues?

They portray it in a negative aspect because whenever there is a social justice issue its always bad and there is never a good social justice interview and the positive impact it has on the community.

Has it been difficult to find articles on social justice issues why/why not?

It’s been easy because our article is Sonny Bill Williams and its a present issue and there’s more articles and more facts given out to use in my groups media watch presentation.
Do you think that the media operates from a moral framework? Give evidence by using your research.

The media never has a moral framework with their articles because if there selling money their happy. A issue would be is Sonny Bill Williams which im researching now for my project the media makes Sonny Bill look like a coward for walking out of the bulldogs and He isn’t turning up to French Rugby training but he probaly has his own reasons for not going and the public gets the wrong veiw of that by thinking hes a coward and he’s just there for the money.
