Media and Information Literacy: Day 15
What is language?
Language is a medium that is used for communicating. It is mostly used by people in order to understand each other's words and in exchanging opinions and ideas.
How is media language is being configured?
Media Language is being configured through the place where it is used. For example, the media language that is being centralized in the Philippines is Filipino, since most of the country's residents speak that language.
Who are the consumers and producers of media?
The consumers are the audience while the producers are the ones who would like to pass on information for various reasons like money, fame or gaining trust.
After these set of questions, Mr. Opiana gave us this situation and asked us to fill the table found below:
"A local government official was charged of graft and corruption and was suspended from his office. The government official announced that the charges were all fabricated and that he will not step down from his office. A large group of supporters are present to protest. They barricaded the building where the official has once taken office. A struggle seems to start breaking out between the protesters and the police."

medium?

|
How will these differences be based on the unique
characteristics of the medium?
|
These differences help us identify which medium is being used to deliver
information about a certain event or occasion.
|
If you will be a reporter, are you going to use the conventional way of how each media will broadcast the given scenario?
Yes. If I were to report the scenario from earlier, I would most likely use the television to broadcast the event. It would help people see what is currently happening in the building where the official has once taken office. At the same time, I would be giving out information regarding the reason why it is happening and who are the people involved in that situation.
What will you do to not make your report boring? Elaborate your answer.
In order to catch the attention of the viewers, I would change the tone of my voice while still remaining professional and formal about my report. In this way, my report wouldn't sound boring and the audience would get their needed information about the event.
Would you exaggerate some elements in your report to make it interesting? Why?
I would exaggerate some parts of my report but leave the serious ones as it is. Serious information can be deadly if one does not handle it properly. It can lead people to share wrong information.
