This course will examine news media's relationship with society in historical, intellectual, economic, political, and social contexts. The course requires research projects, presentations and extensive analysis of news outlets (print, TV, online, radio) and is an upper-level major field requirement for Communications majors. Students in all bachelors programs may take it for upper-level elective credit. The endgame is to make students more aware and ciritcal consumers of news media. Students will be responsible for three research papers of at least 10 pages (Chicago Manual of Style formatting), as well as extemporaneous in-class writing via essay exams (i.e., open- ended questions answered in paragraph form in a "blue book"). Students should emerge from the class with an expansive overview of issues that "news" is facing in a high-speed world of "new" media. Critical thinking/analysis, research, and conceptualization through writing are major focuses.
