The Internet as an Effective Medium to Challenge the Hegemony of Global Corporate Communications Giants
[ send me this paper ]
This is an 8 page paper discussing the Internet as an effective challenge to the hegemony of global corporate communication giants. Within the last thirty years, the monopoly of the global communication corporations has increased in addition to their continued ability to merge into larger and more powerful hegemonic corporations. When first introduced, it was believed that the Internet would give more democratic freedom in regards to the content which could be accessed globally. This was true however in may ways there were still restrictions based on the decisions by corporations and governments as to where, when and who would receive the technological developments relating to Internet access. In addition, many critics believed that Internet technology would still be determined by the American perspective of globalization since most of the global communication corporations were American-based and therefore created a biased Western perspective. Within the last five years however, since the development of mobile wireless Internet communication, the power of the Internet has shifted in many ways. Firstly, technologically, the American communication corporations are behind in regards to global mobile technologies and alliances and this has allowed for smaller international networks to create an independent and unrestrictive base. The new mobile Internet access has also given areas previously dismissed by the larger corporations the ability to join the Internet world. Regardless of access however, whether remote or local, the content of the Internet has remained unrestricted and communications corporations are unable to control the content as traditionally done in the newspaper, radio and television industries. Within the last five years, researchers have come to believe that the Internet is now an effective medium in which to challenge the hegemony of the global corporate communication giants and by the rate at which smaller industries have begun to grow, it looks as if this trend may continue.

The Modern Media: Critique, Comparisons and Conclusions drawn from Works by Michael Parenti, Ben Bagdikian and Bill McKibben
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing the effects of modern media as found in the works of Parenti, Bagdikian and McKibben. Living in today’s modern world, individuals are well aware of the amount of information they are receiving from the various media and information sources. While individuals may be aware of the mass influx of information they are receiving in the different media formats of, for instance, television, the movie industry and the newspaper and news magazine industries to name a few, most individuals are not aware of the influence this information has on them, or more so, the sources of the influence. Through the works of Michael Parenti, Ben H. Bagdikian and Bill McKibben, there appears to be a much larger and darker side to the media and information industry. Basically, no level of the media industry is immune to political and corporate influence which regulates the content of entertainment and news and in turn directly or subtly influences all individuals in modern society. As a result, individuals are not only being inundated with political and corporate ideals but they are often unaware of this process. In addition, individuals are loosing contact with social and natural factors which provided the basis for community relations and rational and independent thought in the past. Bibliography lists 7 sources.

The Multimedia And The Mexican Mafia: Truth In Depiction?
[ send me this paper ]
15 pages in length. The media shapes many of our views in society; the things we read and watch play an extremely important role on our perspectives on issues. One of the most heated issues that have caught the attention of the media within the last couple of years is that of the Mexican Mafia. Nicknamed 'La Eme' for the Spanish letter M, the Mexican Mafia has been portrayed as one of the toughest and most feared gangs in recent history, and the media has not fallen short on their duty to depict it as such. Formed in Texas back in 1984 by Heriberto Huerta as a means by which to defend Latino inmates from other prison predators, the Mexican Mafia has not given itself much reason to be presented as anything other than the brutal killing machine that it is. The writer discusses how legitimately the media portray La Eme. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
