Assignment task:
Share your thoughts about some of what you've read in the Social Issues & the Media resource or from an article posted at FactCheck.
Did anything surprise, anger, frustrate you? Tell us about it and give a link to the article. What's your reaction to what you read and what do you want other people to know about it?
Respond to others. This discussion forum will remain open for the duration of this course and users may post as many topics as they wish. It's okay to disagree with people, but keep it respectful and avoid personal attacks.
You may also use this forum to post about your assignment progress. What's your topic? Are you finding sources? What is an interesting fact you've discovered about it so far? Discuss your progress on this assignment. When finished, post what your assignment was about and try to educate us a little bit on your topic. Respond to others as well (once you make your post you'll be able to see what others have written. If you're the first then your instructor will follow up on your posts with comments as well).
