•Remaining permission slips? Surveys were returned. We finished our discussion from yesterday about American culture while adding to our individual notes pages. We discussed briefly the current Michael Brown case (St. Louis) with regard to the topic of race and also to open a dialogue about story-telling in general. On a sheet of your own paper, answer the following questions in quick-note form: “A picture doesn’t lie.” Is this true? What do pictures tell us? •Who chooses which pictures are used? •How do cultural and political issues influence decisions in the media? •How does the media influence culture and individuals? In 4th hour we set up our EQ and CQ pages; this will be done in the other hours tomorrow.
