...Write a short essay on Druids and similar priests in Europe B.C. In this essay I will compare the druids, so the Celtic religion to the Greek ancient religion. There are similarities but most of the items are differences. Druids were the priests of the Celtic tribe. They had great power because of their spread of belief and for the role they had in the society. First of all, they could go over a ruler. So the druids were acting like judges, advisers, doctors but also as magicians or poets. Druids had ceremonies of mistletoe that involved animal sacrifice it was also a tradition for the Greek tribes. They both thought that their gods need them to pay in some form of a sacrilege. But the druids were also known for the human sacrifice. They strongly believe in the soul that is not dying but it takes another body. This sacrifice it was an act of bravery, of approaching god. Also the druids had this Underworld, were to be found fairies as the guardians. Greek priests were not forming a college of priests like the druids, they were separated. Each priest had his deity to worship and they remain devoted to that only god. “The priest’s role was not that of a rabbi or pastor – he tended not the worshipers but the deity. He would serve only the cult of one deity, and his authority as priest was limited to the cult of that deity. “ As for the rituals, priests would deliver prayers; they had libations all in a religious ceremony. The animal sacrifice was often closed with the analysis...

...Jonna C. Regondola AB Journalism -1A Factors Affecting the Students pursuing Journalism and Media Studies The development and progress of human society always brings about new situations, creates new professions and changes the nature of the ones that exist already. One of the occupations that have recently undergone rather drastic changes is that of a journalist1. A good journalist is not the one that writes what people say, but the one that writes what he is supposed to write. Journalism is not an easy task it is not just about writing and broadcasting of what is the happening in our society. Journalist is not all about of what they saw, it uses passion and to know exactly the reality behind the topic. It is said that journalists embody the freedom of information and now the world is a hectic mess today. News is happening all around us, and the only source that acts as a filter between the chaos and ourselves is the media. The media, journalists especially, must hold upon themselves a great responsibility when they are acting as this filtering apparatus between the ordered and unordered. But is that the only thing journalism does: make sense of the news? No, it does much more than that. Good journalism is working, with help from the citizenry, to create an enlightened Republic filled with citizens who will be well informed of the events which intersect their lives2. Also journalism degree is not just a useless piece of paper, no matter...

...Journalism Today Journalism is a complex profession that has been evolving trough decades, changing its role and emphasis. If in the beginning of the XX century print media were the only source for current events, news and information. The press entities were in a constant struggle one with the other in order to gain readers and increase sales. If we look at the history of journalism we can see that in the middle of the past century the radio has become an important source of information. Some giants of the industry, like CBS, invented a standard news format that later one has been accommodated for TV broadcasting. Radio was a particular kind of revolution for the journalism due to the easiness of updating and providing the information. And in the times of World War II it was one of the more popular sources, because it permitted a long-distance broadcasting. Though, the era of radio was relatively short because of the television that first appeared in the 1930 and was rapidly gaining accessibility and popularity. Apart from the same possibility of quick story updates in comparison with a slow newspapers turnover, the television offered one important feature that has never existed before – visibility. This source of information altered the whole concept of journalism and remains significant until today. However, our dynamic and quickly altering reality created new opportunities and obliged journalism to adapt. In the last two-three decades this field has experienced...

...Ethics of journalism Main article: Journalism ethics and standards The ethics of journalism is one of the most well-defined branches of media ethics, primarily because it is frequently taught in schools of journalism. Journalistic ethics tends to dominate media ethics, sometimes almost to the exclusion of other areas.[1] Topics covered by journalism ethics include: * News manipulation. News can manipulate and be manipulated. Governments and corporations may attempt to manipulate news media; governments, for example, by censorship, and corporations by share ownership. The methods of manipulation are subtle and many. Manipulation may be voluntary or involuntary. Those being manipulated may not be aware of this. See: news propaganda. Photographers crowd around a starlet at the Cannes Film Festival. * Truth. Truth may conflict with many other values. * Public interest. Revelation of military secrets and other sensitive government information may be contrary to thepublic interest, even if it is true. However, public interest is not a term which is easy to define. * Privacy. Salacious details of the lives of public figures is a central content element in many media. Publication is not necessarily justified simply because the information is true. Privacy is also a right, and one which conflicts with free speech. See: paparazzi. * Fantasy. Fantasy is an element of entertainment, which is a legitimate goal of media content. Journalism may mix fantasy and...

...USA Today: Case Analysis 1Research and update the case information as much as possible with current research, and then conduct a comprehensive SWOT analysis for USA Today. Since its 1982 debut, the American newspaper USA Today has had a major impact on the North American Newspaper industry. It has been an immensely successful experiment, a trend - setting hybrid of print and television journalism which in less than 10 years was able to boast a daily readership of 6.6 million. With its effective use of bright colors, high – quality photo reproduction, innovative graphic design, and brief stories, Gannet Co. the parent company of USA Today established the newspaper in its quest to appeal to a new generation of readers who are predominantly young and middle aged achievement-oriented students, professionals and managerial personnel who were heavy newspaper readers and frequent travelers. Weaned on television, this new generation is increasingly attuned to images rather than words and, because of a busier lifestyle, has less time to read than earlier generations of newspaper readers. USA Today has made huge gains by tailoring its product to this market segment. At the same time, it has influenced the form and content of a host of other North American newspapers. The most notable examples are Wall Street Journal and New York Times. USA Today has become one of the leading sources for news in the nation. It has established its credibility and validity as a reliable and resourceful...

Owens, K ristine T rever Determining the skills needed for employment and success in the journalism profession has never been more important. In a period of severe economic stress, journalism companies continue to hire staff, but at much reduced levels and amid vast layoffs, particularly within the print industry. Against this backdrop, this paper explores the impact of technological and economic change on the hiring practices of American news media organizations. A content analysis was conducted over a period of three months in 2008 and 2009 for all the employment opportunities posted by the top ten newspaper and broadcast journalism companies in the United States. Each year, more than 700 postings were coded to determine the most desirable skills and attributes for job candidates and the amount of emphasis placed on multimedia expertise. The study also relied on interviews with recruiters for these companies who share their own views on what makes a desirable job candidate and reflect on some of the study’s findings. The paper argues that these job postings reflect an entire industry in transition...

...society argue whether the consolidation of vehicles for media consumption is beneficial for society as a whole. As the pace of lives for many citizens becomes ever more rapid, consumers of media technology expect to intake incredible amounts of content in a dwindling amount of time, which has pressured the media industry to transform from traditional measures of transference. Researchers Dr. Frederic Gundelsweiler and Dr. Christian Filk attribute this societal demand for instantaneous consumption and its consequences in their article, Future Media Platforms for Convergence Journalisms. “When we examine the traditional media of mass communication, we recognize that they are faced with a hard challenge created by new content standards. The standards are characterized by rapid technological growth, information and communication technology” (Gundelsweiler & Filk, 2012, p.47).These new standards of development are too cited by the researchers for enormous “structural changes in both media and society” (p.47).

I have always been a very passionate student of Journalism who believes in planning every step to her dream of being a successful Journalist with extreme caution and practicality. I left my first footprints into the professional world by attaining training for a duration of 1 and a half years as a Dance Probationer specializing in dance forms like jazz , funk , hip-hop , modern and ballet from The Dancerworx Performing Arts Academy. Under the guidance of its artistic Director , Mr. Ashley Lobo , Broadway trained professionals like Amith Kumar , Ballet professional Master Gabor and Modern instructor Johannes Bonig I not just evolved as a contemporary dancer but also learnt the proficiency of adapting self into continuously changing and competitive environment where everyday a new talented dancer became a part of the cut-throat competition. While I understood the significance of showing immense commitment to the organisation I belonged to, I also came in parallel to the need of constantly working hard without giving in to the pressure of immense competition and the ruthless need to prove one’s efficiency on a daily basis. While I thoroughly enjoyed my skilful dance training I alongside began...

...Creative use of Techniques usually Associated with Fiction In both the two articles, the authors employ creative nonfiction to discuss the death of Aiyana and the rape of Officer Blumer. The situations in both the articles are real occurrence, but the storyline appears as an imaginary plot. Ultimately, the two essays convey the information in a way that makes it appear as fiction. The paper seeks to identify the creative use of techniques usually associated with fiction that are involved in the story development of these two articles. Some of these techniques include the use of subjective, personal voice, the development of strong characters and the creation of tension and suspense. In both the two articles, the authors use subjective journalism where they involve their views into conveying the reality in a way that they want to manipulate the readers. In an article by Sabrina Rubin, the author describes how Rebecca Blumer was raped by three army men. The military officers did not treat this case kindly as they discouraged her from asking for a rape kit and failed to collect forensic evidence. Finally, her skyrocketing military job came to an end. Although it may be a factual narrative, the author reports only one side of the story; about the military’s culture of rape. Consequently, Rebecca allegations could have been a hoax. On the other hand, Charlie, the author of “What Killed Jones?” is also subjective especially where he blames abject poverty on the death of a young girl...
