The Computer as a Powerful Tool in Media Convergence
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing the computer as a powerful tool in media convergence. The computer has quickly become the most powerful media tool today and is steadily adapting to all aspects of the media and is leading the way to media convergence. Because television and radio broadcasts using video and audio streams which can be converted digitally, computers have easily adapted to also offering video and audio features. Perhaps more importantly, in the convergence of the devices of computer and television, “television” viewers will be able to have autonomy in the programs they watch and the personal preferences which can be added to include local information among other options. Within the news media, the computer has become a vital tool not only in regards to information gathering but also in areas such as production and news-flow management in which computers coordinate productions using Web, audio and video feeds. Even the print media, which fundamentally seems historically different, has benefited with its convergence with the computer as newspapers and magazines which are available online can reach a far greater audience than using the traditional distribution methods.

The Electronic Media: Possibilities for Misinformation and Misdirection
[ send me this paper ]
A 5 page assertion that the electronic media is one of the most influential entities of the modern world. This paper cautions, however, that while we are most definitely better informed about current world events as a result of television and radio, we are also subject to manipulation by the media. In many ways it could be said that we are being lulled into a sense of complacency by the glowing light and ever present hum of the electronic media. This light and sound does not necessarily inform in so much as it blinds and deafens us to the realities of world events. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

The Harvard Comma Controversy
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 4 page paper discussing the use of the Harvard comma and the controversy over its use. The Harvard comma, also known as the Oxford comma or serial comma, has lived through a fair amount of controversy for a writing style. The use of the comma in a series and before the final conjunction such as in the sentence “the dress was red, white, and blue” is considered a personal preference according to several style manuals, however those sentences which do not use the comma often add an element of ambiguity, misinterpretation, and confusion. While there are some cases where use of the comma has also led to some confusion, overall it can be said that there is more clarity in writing style when the comma is used.
