Journal Seven

1) This article seems to be appealing because it will cover what people can and cannot say in social media! It also appears as thought they will discuss what people have said on social media forums that have offended people and go into further detail about the situation(s). 
"Who Can Say What."(cover story) By: Poniewozik, James; Caplan, Jeremy; Lofaro, Lina; Sachs, Andrea; Rubiner, Betsy. Time, 4/23/2007, Vol. 169 Issue 17, p32-38, 6p, 3 Color Photographs
2) The author is a searchable and seems credible man. The Article is still very revenant only being two years old. The source also appears to be a good one too!
"Culture, Rap Music, "Bitch," and the Development of the Censorship Frame." By: Schneider, Chistopher J. Deviance/American Behavioral Scientist, 1/2011, Vol. 55 Issue 1, p36-56, 21p. 
3)I like that this focuses on the Web itself and how it deflects what Congress wants to do with the internet. I love that it actually has quotes from those in power and states why they feel they way they do. It connects to the audience and makes you want to continue to read further and further. 
"Web Rises Up to Deflect Bills Seen as Threat." By: Jonathan Weisman. New York Times(Late Editions(East Coast)). New York, NY. 1/19/2012 ph A.1. 


This was a good assignment! I loved looking at all the different sources and being able to know how to search effectively! That astrid* tool was incredibly helpful! I never knew you could do that! It opens so many more doors and endless possibilities! Also replacing filler words with 'and' that is insane how much of a difference that makes too! What I changed was putting censor* instead of censorship, placing 'and' between censorship and media and united stated, these short quick fixes brought up a TON more articles for me. This was all very helpful!

  1. Hi, Malari:

    I'm glad you are seeing the value of the techniques we are covering. It's great when it does improve your search and make your results more relevant. The articles you selected look like good matches for your topic. You didn't indicate how you determine the scholarly nature of the article you selected, these would include methodology, study criteria in the abstract, an extensive bibliography, credentials of the authors and affiliation.

    Thanks for your efforts,
    Andrea
