Comparison Of TED Talk And Buzz Feed
Nowadays, there is a very fine line on what people consider credible news. For instance, Buzz Feed is an internet news and entertainment site. Its purpose is to entertain the viewer in a fun, mindless way. TED talk is an international series of online conferences. Its purpose is to entertain the viewer in a thought provoking way. Is it accurate to infer that TED Talk is more creditable than Buzz Feed? Although Buzz Feed includes some content about politics, animals, and business, TED Talk focuses on topics that use research of technology, science, and culture. TED Talk and Buzz Feed are different types of sites. As TED Talk is a website where you can view conferences, Buzz Feed is a website that provides news and entertainment. To clarify,

    The same story of voting in Afghanistan was reported in a different way by MSNBC. After reading the article, it felt like the information was precise and more accurate. The article included more quotes than CNN and contained a better variety of information so more of the story was presented. It was surprising, in a way, to see that different people were interviewed in each of the websites, with the exception of the police officer Kamen Khan. I figured that certain people would be more…

    The First Ted Talk Analysis

    The first Ted Talk was about ben dunlap and his many Hungarian mentors. He mostly focused on Mr. Sandor Teszler and is the current president of Wofford College. His uncle Henry was living under a death threat from the Ku Klux Klan. His uncle did a very Hungarian act by moving his family to Massachusetts so that he could face the Ku Klan Klan alone in South Carolina. Thinking about it, I pretty sure I would do the same thing being in his situation. Hungarians have their own equivalent of the Ku Klux Klan which I found disturbing. Dunlap states that, “Sandor Teszler somewhat resembles Mahatma Gandhi, minus the loincloth and plus orthopedic boots.” He was teased for having two club feet.…

    The Good, the Bad, and 'the Daily Show' Reading Analysis

    Zinser then makes the claim that ‘fake’ news causes two vices, the first being deception due to the lack of valuing objectivity in their reports. The second is dilution, both in the quality of media from the variance of online sources as well as adding excessive news reports attracting more viewers to what is typically a hard news source. Zinser also reminds us of the beneficial aspects in ‘fake’ news. Empirical data suggests a trend that either viewers of The Daily Show are better informed than those watching hard news because of its effectiveness, or, on the other hand that it attracts viewers who already know about the current events being discussed, evidence of its success.…

    Due to the competition of new media, traditional news organizations are risking the quality of their content in order to keep up and be the first to deliver the latest news. Additionally, traditional news organizations are realizing that society is gravitating towards receiving their news from ‘new media’ news outlets and they are compromising their credibility in order to be the first to report the news. New media news outlets are gaining more credibility and acceptance form society due to their ability to be on location and get their information reported immediately.…

    Breitbart Analysis

    As technology has grown to make communication easier and easier, the sheer quantity of media has exploded into the insanely huge network of news options available today. In 1980, nearly 90% of all primetime television watchers were watching the “Big Three” networks of CBS, NBC, and ABC. By 2005, the number had fallen to 32% and is even lower today.1 Long time news agencies like The New York Times and The Atlantic are facing fierce competition from exclusively online media distributors like Buzzfeed and Breitbart. Not to mention the rising amount of people whose primary news sources are noncurated social media websites like Facebook, Twitter, and Reddit.2 With such a fragmented media landscape, it is now more important than ever for the responsible…

    Social Media Influence On Presidential Elections

    A 2016 study by Pew Research Center using 4,654 respondents was conducted. Pew’s American Trends Panel (ATP) who completed a series of surveys between Jan. 12 and Feb. 8, 2016 on the modern news consumer. Results showed that “Social media...is trusted by a slim majority only 4 percent of web-using adults have a lot of trust in the information they find on social media. And that rises to only 7 percent among those who get news on these sites. “. This mistrust is a result of several factors. Name recognition is easier done with a newspaper or television program. Once a news article is shared online the logos of the source may not follow and the by line may be tiny. It is then not suprising to learn that “ In a real time analysis 4 in 10 of those who got their news from a website could recall the source every time. Among those who got news 3 times or more from a link in a given week…” Whether the source of news can be recalled only matters if the source is providing facts. Who is responsible for making sure the public is provided with factual information? According to those polled it is not the reader. 83% of all voters polled think its the news media’s responsibility to fact check. 65% think its a major responsibility, 16% not at all. There is a difference in how information is respected among age groups. Loyalty to…
